Israel and Hamas have agreed to a ceasefire, eight months after its initial approval by the UN Security Council. The agreement faced numerous delays, primarily due to opposition from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. While the core framework remains intact, the originally planned three-phase implementation has undergone many changes. The prospect of Donald Trump’s upcoming presidency has pressured both parties to expedite the agreement.
