International mediators are reportedly close to reaching a deal for a three-day humanitarian Ceasefire in Gaza. The deal would also involve the release of around a dozen hostages held by Hamas and the entry of a small amount of fuel into the territory. The ceasefire is being negotiated by the United States, Egypt, and Qatar, with the Biden administration suggesting that the length of the pause be tied to the number of hostages released. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has stated that any temporary ceasefire must be accompanied by the release of the hostages.
