What to know about the Gaza ceasefire and hostage release plan:
An Israel-Hamas ceasefire went into effect at noon local time (5 a.m. Eastern) Friday as part of the first phase of President Trump's peace plan to end the war in Gaza, the Israeli military said.
Israeli troops have finished withdrawing from parts of Gaza, U.S. envoy Steve Witkoff said, starting a 72-hour countdown for Hamas to release all remaining Israeli hostages.
Israeli officials say 48 hostages are still in Gaza, including 20 who are believed to be alive. Hamas will release all of the remaining hostages by noon local time on Monday, an Israeli official told CBS News.
As part of the deal outlined by Mr. Trump, Israel will release dozens of Palestinian prisoners in exchange for the release of the Israeli hostages, and allow the immediate provision of "full aid" to Gaza, which has faced severe food shortages and has fallen into famine in some regions, according to the world's leading authority on food crises.
