Israel and the Palestinian group Hamas have agreed to a ceasefire deal with Israel, Qatar and the United States have said, after more than 460 days of a war that has devastated Gaza.
Qatar’s Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman bin Jassim Al Thani said on Wednesday that the ceasefire deal would come into effect on Sunday, but added that work on implementation steps with Israel and Hamas was continuing. Israel says that some final details remain, and an Israeli government vote is expected on Thursday.
