Israel Security Cabinet Approves Deal For Ceasefire in Gaza.

The Israel Security Cabinet has approved a ceasefire and hostage-prisoner exchange deal with Hamas, marking a pause in the 15 months of fighting in Gaza. The agreement, mediated by the US, Qatar, and Egypt, will see the gradual release of hostages and prisoners, with further negotiations planned to end the conflict that began in October 2023. While some Israeli politicians express wariness and opposition to the deal, the ceasefire is expected to proceed, with significant economic gains and market improvements in anticipation of the agreement.
