A peace in the continuing Israel-Hamas conflict is scheduled to start on Sunday at 6.30 GMT, putting a crucial halt to the conflicts that have lasted for more than 15 months. The package, brokered by negotiators from Qatar, the United States, and Egypt, outlines the transfer of victims and captives as a first step towards easing tensions. In exchange for a group of Arab prisoners held by Israel, three Israeli victims will be freed in accordance with the agreement.

Do You Feel the Israel-Hamas Ceasefire Will Increase Relations?
If the peace revenues as planned, a total of 33 victims, taken during the Hamas-led assault on October 7, 2023, may become returned to Israel during the first 42 weeks of the peace. In trade, Israel does release hundreds of Arab prisoners. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, in a televised target, described the peace as a temporary measure.
The peace comes as fighting continues on the day of the peace, with reviews of casualties in Gaza, including an Israeli attack in Khan Yunis that left five household members dead. Residents of Gaza who are at risk of losing their homes have a careful optimism about their future plans. However, philanthropic organisations have been mobilising resources to provide much-needed help to the besieged place.
The former president claims payment for the contract as well as the inauguration of Donald Trump as the US leader. Trump stressed the need to end the conflict while backing Israel’s ongoing efforts to defend its objectives.
Important details of the peace include:
Hostage exchange: An initial group of three Israeli women hostages will be released on Sunday, with a total of 33 hostages expected to be freed during the first phase.
Palestinian prisoners: Israel will release 737 Palestinian detainees, primarily women and minors, with some being deported as part of the deal.
Humanitarian aid: Up to 600 trucks carrying essential supplies, including 50 fuel trucks, will enter Gaza daily, pending Israeli inspections at the Rafah crossing.
Ceasefire duration: The first phase is set to last 42 days, during which negotiations for a more comprehensive agreement will take place.
Continued vigilance: Israeli military forces will maintain a presence along Gaza’s borders, and the truce will be treated as temporary, allowing for a potential resumption of hostilities if deemed necessary.
