The terms of the Israel-Hamas ceasefire include the release of 98 hostages, including 33 Israelis, as part of a deal brokered by the US, Qatar, and Egypt. The release will occur in phases, with 3 American-Israeli hostages also being freed. In return, Israel will release Palestinian detainees, with the number increasing for female detainees. Israel has agreed to allow significant aid into Gaza and will withdraw troops from urban areas. There are also provisions for reopening the Rafah border crossing to Egypt, which will allow displaced Palestinians to return home. The ceasefire is seen as a significant step in the ongoing conflict, but it remains to be seen how the situation will evolve, particularly in Gaza, where humanitarian needs are critical.

In a shocking escalation, Saraya Al-Quds, the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, launched a relentless barrage of 107 rockets and mortars targeting Israeli soldiers in Gaza. The attack, which took place on December 9, 2024, focused on Israeli troops stationed east of Rafah, particularly in the Jenina neighborhood. Intense ground clashes erupted between the Al-Quds Brigade and the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), with both sides exchanging heavy fire. This marks yet another chapter in the ongoing conflict between Hamas-backed forces and Israel, following the October 7 attacks that escalated tensions in the region.

Israeli forces fired bullets and tear gas at Palestinian families gathered near Ofer Prison, awaiting the release of prisoners under a ceasefire deal with Hamas. The attack injured seven people and came amid heightened security measures to suppress public gatherings. Families were warned against celebrating or displaying Palestinian flags, with threats of canceling releases. This incident follows Israeli PM Netanyahu's statement reserving the "right" to resume the war on Gaza, which has claimed nearly 47,000 Palestinian lives.
