Gaza ceasefire plan live: Israel’s government approves deal for hostages’ release as US troops to ‘oversee’ truce

Ceasefire supposed to begin immediately after early Friday’s cabinet approval under deal, says Israeli official

The Times of Israel reports that Gaza’s civil defence service has issued a warning to Palestinians not to approach the areas where the Israeli forces are present, particularly towards the border, until the IDF has officially announced their withdrawal and officials confirm this.

“Violating this warning puts your life at risk,” the statement, distributed on Telegram, read. “We urge everyone to comply for your safety, and to facilitate the work of emergency teams and field authorities.”
