Hamas and other Palestinian factions have agreed to a new ceasefire proposal put forward by Egyptian and Qatari mediators, describing it as a 'partial deal leading to a comprehensive deal.' The proposal closely resembles a previous plan presented by the United States envoy, which includes a 60-day truce and the release of hostages and prisoners in phases. Negotiations for a permanent ceasefire are set to begin on the first day of the truce, with hopes that the two-month period will be enough to reach a final agreement to end the war. Mediators are now awaiting Israel's response to the latest proposal, which Hamas accepted without seeking amendments.
