The newly announced ceasefire agreement, which was reached by mediators overnight, is set to take effect in Gaza on 9 October.

Phase one of US President Donald Trump’s 20-point plan will begin in the coming hours and days.

According to Israel’s Channel 14, the signing of the agreement will be followed by Israeli cabinet and government meetings to ratify the deal.

The Israeli army will then carry out its first withdrawal from Gaza’s population centers, in line with the agreement’s withdrawal map.

Twenty living Israeli captives will be released following 72 hours. In exchange, Tel Aviv is required to release 250 prisoners serving life sentences and 1,700 Palestinians detained from Gaza since 7 October 2023.
