Cease-fire talks between Israel and Hamas stall amid hostage disputes, political tensions, and aid access issues.

Netanyahu’s coalition has been trying to find a path forward on a new law. But his base is largely opposed to granting sweeping draft exemptions and a key lawmaker has stood in the way of giving the ultra-Orthodox a law they can get behind, prompting their exit.

Hamas is “ready to accept any initiative that clearly leads to the complete end to the war,” an official said.

The U.S. President said Israel “agreed to the necessary conditions to finalize” a 60-day ceasefire, “during which time we will work with all parties to end the war.”

The Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, a controversial U.S.-backed aid distribution initiative supported by Israel, is currently the primary method for Palestinians in devastated Gaza to access supplies in designated spots after Israel lifted its aid blockade in mid-May.

The deal comes more than 20 months into the conflict -- and more than three months after a previous deal ended.
