Israel has reportedly accepted the proposal, which includes a 60-day ceasefire period. Hamas would be expected to release ten hostages in two phases within a week and hand over the bodies of eighteen deceased hostages. In return, Israel would release 125 Palestinians serving life sentences and 1111 Gaza residents arrested after the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023.
