Ceasefire to begin in Gaza, hostages release timeline announced

A ceasefire in Gaza is set to begin as the Israeli cabinet in the early hours of Friday voted to accept the framework of the plan for the release of all hostages.

With the agreement coming into effect, Israel’s military has 24 hours to move to a pre-determined line within Gaza, after which a 72-hour period begins in which Hamas must surrender living and dead hostages.

Foreign leaders convened in Paris to work out postwar plans in Gaza.
