Israel has launched a process of downloading soldiers from Gaza, while the US launched hours on the 72 -hour Hamas window to release all the remaining hostages because the complex process of ending the two -year war started.
The Israeli forces retreated to the so -called yellow line on Friday, as set out in the plan that US President Donald Trump introduced at the end of last month, with a fight suspended by agreement soon achieved on Thursday. Attention is now moving to Hamas, which is to free 20 hijackers, which are expected to be alive, plus the remains of those who are dead in the preliminary time frame.
Trump said the hostage would be released on Monday or Tuesday. It is expected to go to Israel to hand over. The US Middle East Steve Witkoff confirmed the 72 -hour postponement on Friday.
The development refers to early steps in the most important diplomatic breakthrough in the Israeli War, because the conflict began more than two years ago, caused relief and some celebrations in Israel and Gaza. The war killed tens of thousands of people and destroyed the Palestinian territory of more than 2 million people, while destabilizing the wider Middle East.
Israel is to release nearly 2,000 Palestinian prisoners in exchange for hostages received during the attacks in October 2023, which triggered war, and their identity is still finished. It is not expected that it will be among them that among them one day as a potential leader of the Palestinian state, which was offered as a potential leader of the Palestinian state offered as a potential leader of the Palestinian state offered as a potential leader of the Palestinian state. Israel has been imprisoned for more than two decades.
The coalition of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu approved a peace agreement overnight, about a day after the negotiators on the warring parties reached the agreement in the Egyptian resort Sharm El-Sheikh. The conditions were mediated by Americans, as well as Egypt, Qatar and Turkey.
Witkoff and Jared Kushner, the president’s brother -in -law, were there for the last phases of the negotiations.
As part of the agreement, the Israeli government will allow an increase in assistance through UN agencies and other international bodies.
“We and our partners are ready to move-nine,” said UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres on Thursday. “We have expertise, distribution networks and community relationships.”
While in most Gaza is officially on the spot, on Thursday, fighting was reported in some areas, with Israeli forces hit the Hamas cell in North Gaza and the Palestinian militant group that four people were killed. It wasn’t clear if they quoted the same incident.
The Israeli army said the soldier was killed on Thursday afternoon by a sniper fire in northern Gaza.
Generally, the Israelis and Palestinians welcomed the agreement. Most gazans were displaced during a conflict that is killed by more than 67,000 of them, according to the Ministry of Health Hamas. Israel lost more than 450 soldiers in the fight.
Negotiators still have a lot of challenges that need to be overcome to ensure that the ceasefire is maintained. Hamas – has described the US terrorist organization, the European Union and others – has to agree to determine its weapons or officially say that it will not have any role in the future Gaza administration, which set Trump’s plan.
There is little clarity to run Gaza. The US proposal says the “Peace Council”, chaired by Trump and, including former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, will be supervised by the Palestinian Technocratic Committee, which will be responsible for public services.
Yet, the US, European states, the Arab world and Turkey, all made an agreement as the best opportunity to end the conflict that Hamas launched his attack on October 7, 2023 and killed 1,200 people and passed another 250.
Israeli assets obtained from the prospects of peace. Israeli Shekel is at a three -year maximum and this week by 1.2% compared to the dollar, one of the best performances around the world. Israeli bonds and stocks also increased.
Two higher American officials who spoke to reporters on Thursday evening on the condition of anonymity, said there were two phases to agree on the agreement – the release of hostages and what they called “almost permanent ceasefire” to solve other problems. These include the elimination of Hamas’s weapon, creating a new Gaza government and full of Israeli forces.
According to US officials, the US Central Command, which oversees the US forces in the Middle East, will have 200 soldiers on the ground to observe the Gaza ceasefire agreements.
The US acknowledges that there are many ways to go wrong. However, Trump is optimistic about the expansion of Abraham’s agreements signed in his first term, which has seen countries, such as the United Arab Emirates and Bahrain, normalize links with Israel. The war and suffering of the Palestinians were enraged by the Arab countries, including Saudi Arabia. The kingdom was close to the formally recognition of Israel on the eve of the conflict.
Hamas said that the hostage occurred “the end of the gaza war” and “ensuring the withdrawal of the occupation forces”. He thanked the mediators and, in a remarkable shift in the tone, said he appreciated “the efforts of US President Donald Trump”.
Nevertheless, the US and others called on to ensure that Israel does not break any conditions and signals its alertness.
The conflict had consequences far beyond Gaza, when Israel attacked Iranian militias in Lebanon, Syria, Yemen and Qatar. In June, she also fought with the 12 -day Air War against Iran, which saw that the US nuclear places would strike the Republic of Islamic.
The UN -supported monitor has declared famine in Gaza parts, while another panel supported by New York said that Israel had committed genocide, the Netanyahu government denies something.
Israeli isolation increased what the war continued. Many key allies, including Great Britain, France and Canada, resisted that about two weeks ago it recognized Palestinian statehood. Some EU members, the largest business partner of Israel, demanded sanctions against the country’s government.
In an interview with Fox, Trump said this week that he had told Netanyahu that Israel “could not fight the world – and understands it very well.”
