Summary

A summary of the key points of this story verified across multiple sources.

Israel and Hamas are in negotiations to establish a ceasefire amidst a humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The two sides face challenges concerning hostages' identities and fates, particularly as pressure mounts from outgoing U.S. President Biden and President-elect Trump. Hostage families demand a complete release, while Netanyahu maintains military pressure. A phased approach includes the release of some hostages, a halt to fighting, and Palestinian prisoner releases, but disagreements persist over hostages' conditions and the number of prisoners to be freed. The conflict has resulted in high casualties and severe displacement in Gaza.
