Hamas Accepts Gaza Ceasefire Proposal Amid Ongoing Tensions

Hamas has announced its acceptance of a new ceasefire proposal mediated by Egypt and Qatar, signaling a potential step toward de-escalation in the Gaza conflict. Khalil al-Hayya, a senior Hamas official, confirmed the group's approval of the proposal, which includes the release of five hostages weekly and a pause in fighting. 

The ceasefire aims to address humanitarian concerns and facilitate the exchange of hostages and prisoners. However, Israel has submitted a counter-proposal in coordination with the United States, leaving the final agreement uncertain.

The international community watches closely as mediators work to bridge the divide and bring relief to the war-torn Gaza Strip.
