New Developments in Israeli-Palestinian Conflict

On the diplomatic front, there were significant developments in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Hamas, the Islamist group that controls the Gaza Strip, announced that it had agreed to a ceasefire with Israel. The ceasefire was brokered by Egypt after several days of cross-border violence.

The ceasefire has been welcomed by both Israelis and Palestinians. However, it is unclear how long it will hold. Hamas has a history of breaking ceasefires, and it is possible that the current ceasefire will collapse as well.
