From AFP News Agency.
Israel and Hamas have agreed a Gaza ceasefire deal to free the remaining living hostages, in a major step towards ending a war that has killed tens of thousands of people and unleashed a humanitarian catastrophe.
The agreement, which follows a 20-point peace plan for Gaza announced last month by US President Donald Trump, is to be signed in Egypt, and calls for Israel to release hundreds of Palestinian prisoners.
Under the deal, there will be a surge of aid into Gaza after more than two years of war, and the Israeli army has also said it is preparing to pull back troops in the Palestinian territory.
