The Israeli government will meet today at 3:30 PM to approve the agreement with Hamas regarding hostages and a ceasefire in Gaza, according to a statement from a spokesperson for Benjamin Netanyahu.

The meeting was not expected to take place before tomorrow evening, but it was decided to expedite the process.

Earlier today, Netanyahu convened the security cabinet for a hearing regarding the agreement, which was signed late last night in Doha.

The implementation of the agreement is expected to begin on Sunday at 12:15 PM, with the first hostages returning to Israel from Gaza around 4 PM.
