The ceasefire between Hamas and Israel is expected to take effect on Sunday at 8:30 am local time, according to Qatar’s foreign ministry.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of Qatar, Majid al-Ansari, has urged people to be careful when starting work and to wait for instructions from the authorities. This is the second ceasefire that took place during the war.

Israeli minister approved the agreement early on Saturday morning to end the fighting in Gaza which would include the release of many hostages and stop the war with Hamas that began after the terrorist group’s attack on Oct. 7, 2023 to the Jewish government.

The agreement allows for the release of 33 hostages over the next six weeks, in exchange for hundreds of Palestinians imprisoned by Israel. The rest are to be released in the second phase which will be discussed first.

Hamas has said it will not release the remaining survivors without a long-term ceasefire and a complete withdrawal from Israel.

But questions remain about the ceasefire, including the identity of the 33 hostages who are due to be released in the first, six-week phase and which of them are still alive.

Hamas agreed to release three women captured on the first day of the agreement, four on the seventh day and the remaining 26 over the next five weeks.

The Israeli Ministry of Justice has released a list of more than 700 Palestinian prisoners expected to be released in the first phase of the deal. The Ministry of Justice has said that the release will not start until 4pm on Sunday.
