Ceasefire Deal Reached For Gaza - American Officials

The US has confirmed there is an agreement to reach an agreement to end the 15-month-old war on Gaza.

The deal is expected to see Israeli hostages freed in exchange for Palestinian prisoners.

For months, on-off talks have been brokered by Egyptian and Qatari mediators, with the backing of the United States.

More details are expected to be set out soon - while the US President elect Donald Trump says there's a deal to release hostages shortly.

The latest war started with the Hamas attacks on Israel on October 7th since then more than 46,000 have been killed in Israeli airstrikes and invasion of the Palestinian territory - while a Lancet report suggested it could be underestimated by around 25,000.
