Hey everyone! 😊 There’s some important news from the Middle East. Israel and Gaza have agreed to stop fighting and start a ceasefire! This means they will pause the conflict and work towards peace.
The Israeli government had a big meeting, and most of the leaders voted for this peace plan. Starting on Sunday, both sides will begin releasing people who were held captive. In the first part of the deal, Israel will get back 33 hostages, including women, children, and older men. In return, Israel will release all Palestinian women and children under 19 from their prisons. 🤝
Brett McGurk, a negotiator from the United States, said he’s confident that everything is ready to go. He expects the ceasefire to start on Sunday morning. This agreement could help bring an end to the 15-month-long conflict between Israel and Gaza.
However, there are still challenges. Early on Saturday, an air strike in Gaza sadly caused more loss of life. Let’s hope that the ceasefire will bring an end to the violence and lead to lasting peace in the region. 🕊️
It’s important for countries to work together and find peaceful solutions to their problems. This news is a step in the right direction!
