The ceasefire deal Hamas accepted includes a 60-day truce, partial withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza, release of about half of the Israeli hostages in exchange for 200 Palestinian prisoners, and a two-step process for hostage release. The deal is similar to previous proposals and aims to open negotiations for a broader end to the conflict.
