Ceasefire Agreement in Israeli-Hamas Conflict

A six-week ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas is on the verge of implementation, pending final approval from the Israeli cabinet. The deal includes the release of an initial group of hostages, prioritizing children, women, and the elderly, while also allowing for partial troop withdrawal by Israel from certain areas in Gaza. Opponents within the Israeli cabinet express concerns over security implications, fearing that the deal undermines their war objectives. This delicate negotiation reflects deeper tensions in Israeli politics amid public protests and pressure from various interest groups regarding the handling of hostages and military actions.
