Hamas Declares Permanent Gaza War End After Ceasefire Deal

Hamas declared the ceasefire deal with Israel as a "permanent end" to the Gaza war, following assurances from the United States. The agreement includes the release of 20 living hostages by Hamas within 72 hours in exchange for Israel freeing 250 Palestinians.

Despite the ceasefire, an Israeli airstrike targeted a residential building in Gaza City shortly after the agreement. The truce is seen as the first step in a broader peace plan proposed by President Donald Trump's administration.

The deal marks a significant development in the ongoing conflict, with discussions ongoing about Gaza's governance and the implementation of the ceasefire terms.
