Teh article reports that a U.S.-backed ceasefire in Gaza took effect at noon local time,marking the first phase of President Donald Trump’s peace plan too end the conflict in the region. The Israeli Cabinet approved the ceasefire, and Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) began withdrawing from certain areas while maintaining control over 58% of the gaza Strip. The ceasefire also initiated a 72-hour deadline for Hamas to release all living hostages; currently, around 20 of approximately 48 hostages remain alive<\/a> but in poor condition. The return of deceased hostages is uncertain, though Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu emphasized the importance of retrieving and burying them. Despite the ceasefire declaration earlier in the week, Israeli air strikes continued until its formal approval.<\/p>\n

The ceasefire halts Israel’s advance in Gaza city, allowing displaced Palestinians to return. The U.S. is supporting the agreement by setting up a coordination centre staffed by 200 service members, although none will be deployed inside Gaza.Hamas, facing diplomatic isolation and pressure, has agreed to abide by the ceasefire, influenced by assurances from Trump that Israel will not resume hostilities. The deal represents a critical step toward resolving the long-standing conflict<\/a> but acknowledges that a lasting peace remains challenging.
