What is in the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas?

A broad outline of the deal was announced on Wednesday by Qatar, which brokered the deal along with the United States and Egypt. However, the full details of what was agreed by Israeli and Hamas negotiators have not yet been officially announced.

US President Joe Biden has said the deal would "halt the fighting in Gaza, surge much needed-humanitarian assistance to Palestinian civilians, and reunite the hostages with their families after more than 15 months in captivity".

Hamas seized 251 hostages when it attacked Israel in October 2023. It is still holding 94 captive, although Israel believes that only 60 are still alive.

Egypt's foreign ministry said 1,890 Palestinian prisoners were expected to be released by Israel in the first stage of the ceasefire.
