Gaza Victory: After 15 months of brutality, zionist regime failed on every front, once again defeated!
Agreement sets a path to ending 15 months of Israel's war on Gaza that will see Palestinian and Israeli captives exchanged
A Hamas source: The ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip will enter the implementation phase 24 hours after it is announced.
Al Jazeera announced that the ceasefire agreement includes Qatar and Egypt’s control over the return of Palestinian refugees from the south to the north of the Gaza Strip.
According to this agreement, the withdrawal of the Israeli army from the Netsarim axis will consist of several stages.
Hamas has agreed to a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, potentially bringing an end to Israel’s devastating war in the enclave.
The ceasefire will go into effect on Sunday.
Qatari Prime Minister Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani announced the deal on Wednesday during a press conference in Doha.
The Qataris, alongside the Egyptians, helped negotiate the agreement with Israel, while the incoming US administration of President-elect Donald Trump applied pressure on the Israelis, Haaretz reported.
Israel will release 1,000 Palestinians detained from 8 October 2023 onwards.
Among the 33 captives will be several men over the age of 50, who will be released in exchange for Palestinians serving life sentences at a ratio of 1:3, and Palestinians serving other sentences at a ratio of 1:27.
Hisham al-Sayed and Avera Mengistu, who have been held in Gaza since before Israel’s war, will be released in exchange for 60 Palestinian prisoners and 47 Palestinians who were re-arrested after being freed in 2011 as part of the Gilad Shalit prisoner exchange deal.
Meanwhile, Hamas’ acting chief, Khalil al-Hayya, said Wednesday that Israel has failed to achieve its goals in Gaza, suggesting that the 16-month-long assault had become a war of attrition that was too politically costly for Tel Aviv.
Israel has killed more than 46,000 Palestinians in Gaza, with nearly half being children. A peer-reviewed study published earlier this week by the medical journal The Lancet said that not only is there no inflation in the number of deaths reported in Gaza, but that there is a 41 percent undercount of the dead given the scale of Israel’s attack, and the lack of rescue and recovery equipment and functioning hospitals.
The UN has said Israel has carried out “acts of genocide,” in Gaza, an assertion also backed by a number of Israeli historians.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres on Wednesday said he hoped the deal would remove significant security and political obstacles that have impeded the delivery of humanitarian aid into Gaza. He added that the UN stands ready to scale up its relief deliveries as the deal requires.
