Israel’s security cabinet will meet on Friday after negotiators reached a deal for the release of hostages as part of a Gaza ceasefire with Hamas, the office of the prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, has said.
Israeli warplanes kept up intense strikes in Gaza, and Palestinian authorities said late on Thursday that at least 86 people had been killed on the day after the truce was announced. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it had attacked approximately 50 targets throughout Gaza Strip in the past 24 hours.
