A truce between Israel and Hamas has come into effect, with a three-phase agreement that includes the release of prisoners and a gradual ceasefire. The first phase involves the release of 33 Israeli hostages, while Israel will release about 2,000 Palestinian prisoners. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu set the condition that the ceasefire would not start until Hamas provides a list of hostages for release. The Israeli military has withdrawn from several locations in Gaza, and Palestinians celebrated the truce.
