Israel and Hamas agree four-day ceasefire to halt war in Gaza

Israel and Hamas have agreed a truce to the devastating war in Gaza.

It's been over a month since the brutal conflict began on 7 October, with thousands of men, women, and children losing their lives.

But now, the two sides have agreed to a four-day halt to the war, with dozens of hostages set to be released by Hamas in return for Palestinians imprisoned by Israel.

According to reports in Egypt, the truce will start at 8am tomorrow (23 November).
