Dec 12, 2024 - 12:04 AM EST

Ceasefire Negotiations: Arab mediators have announced that Hamas has yielded to two key demands from Israel regarding a ceasefire agreement in Gaza. This gives hope for an agreement and the release of some hostages in the coming days. For the first time, Hamas has indicated willingness to agree to a deal that would allow Israeli forces to temporarily remain in Gaza after the cessation of hostilities, according to information published in The Wall Street Journal.

Hostage Issue: Hamas is asking for several days of silence to search for hostages, but there are concerns that this time could be used for rearmament. There's also conflicting information about whether Hamas has provided Israel with a list of hostages, as the group itself denies this.

Intra-Palestinian Conflict: Alongside the main conflict, a feud has erupted in Samaria on the West Bank between the Palestinian Authority, Hamas, and Islamic Jihad, involving armed clashes and car bombings.
