Israel will not proceed with the ceasefire deal until Hamas provides a list of hostages to be released, Netanyahu said. IDF is prepared for the hostages' release and has set up complexes near the Gaza border.

Hamas named the three hostages it plans to release on Sunday more than two hours after the ceasefire in Gaza was supposed to have begun. Israel had earlier said it would keep fighting until it received the names.

Israeli government approves ceasefire agreement. Ceasefire to begin in Gaza Sunday morning, hostages to be released in the afternoon.

Two far-right Israeli ministers publicly opposed a Gaza ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas on Sunday in another sign of widening cracks in Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's coalition. Hardline National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir and two other ministers from his nationalist-religious party resigned from Netanyahu's cabinet over the deal,

A ceasefire, hostage and prisoners deal endorsed by Israel and Hamas came into effect Sunday after a three-hour delay.

There is no detailed plan in place to govern Gaza after the war, much less rebuild it. Any return of Hamas will test the patience of Israel, which has said it will resume fighting unless the group is dismantled.
