Israel-Gaza live updates: Ceasefire in effect as IDF repositions

The Israeli government approved the first phase of the ceasefire deal at 1:20 a.m. Friday local time in Israel, triggering the next series of steps under the deal.

Here’s a look at what happens next, according to Israeli sources and a draft document of the agreement obtained by ABC News.

The Israel Defense Forces will withdraw and redeploy troops to agreed-upon lines within 24 hours of the Israeli government approving the deal. This means that the IDF will reposition by 1:20 a.m. Saturday local Israel time. Once the IDF redeploys to the agreed upon borders, the IDF will remain in control of more than 50% of Gaza during this phase of the deal.

Within 72 hours after the IDF completes redeployment to the agreed-upon borders, all hostages, living and dead, will be released and returned to Israel.

In exchange, more than 1,000 Palestinian prisoners will be released. That includes 250 prisoners and detainees held in the custody of the Israeli Prison Service, along with 1,700 residents of the Gaza Strip who were not involved with the Oct. 7, 2023, attacks but were arrested afterward, according to a draft document of the agreement obtained by ABC News.

Under the terms called for in the first phase, more humanitarian aid will also be allowed into the Gaza Strip — but details on when and how are still unknown.
