The Israeli military announced that a ceasefire in Gaza began at noon local time on Friday, marking the start of the “first phase” of a peace deal between Israel and Hamas. The agreement involves the release of Israeli hostages held by Hamas and the withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza to a predetermined line, ending over two years of conflict. The Israel Defense Forces stated that troops have begun positioning along new deployment lines to implement the ceasefire and facilitate the return of hostages, with Southern Command troops remaining in the area to address any immediate threats.
