After two years of devastating conflict, Israel and Hamas have implemented a ceasefire agreement brokered by President Trump. The deal includes the release of all remaining hostages, withdrawal of Israeli troops, and the return of thousands of displaced Palestinians to their homes in northern Gaza. The agreement also establishes humanitarian corridors allowing 600 aid trucks daily and reopening of border crossings, though questions remain about Gaza's future governance and Hamas's disarmament.
