A ceasefire in Gaza will begin within 24 hours of Israeli cabinet approval, an Israeli government spokeswoman says
Israel’s cabinet and security cabinet are due to meet from 15:00 BST on Thursday, and are widely expected to sign-off on the plan
The first phase of a deal was signed by Israel and Hamas earlier today in Egypt
As well as the ceasefire, it will also see Hamas release Israeli hostages; Israel release hundreds of Palestinian prisoners; Israeli troops beginning to withdraw from parts of Gaza; and hundreds of trucks of aid a day entering Gaza
Israel says the hostage release will begin within 72 hours of the ceasefire starting
Palestinians in Gaza and hostage families in Israel have been celebrating the breakthrough, which was announced late on Wednesday by President Trump
