Israel-Hamas Announce Temporary Cease-Fire and Hostage Release


In a significant development amid ongoing conflict, Israel and Hamas have agreed to a temporary cease-fire, set to commence on the 47th day of the Israel-Hamas war. The deal, reached on Wednesday, notably includes the release of Israeli hostages held in the Gaza Strip.

The cease-fire is scheduled to begin Thursday at 10 a.m. local time (3 a.m. ET), as announced by Hamas. However, Israel has not yet confirmed this specific timing. This agreement marks a crucial pause in hostilities, offering a glimmer of hope for de-escalation in a region long plagued by conflict.

The world watches closely as this tentative peace takes shape, with many awaiting further confirmation and details from Israeli officials.
