Hamas has agreed to a peace plan proposed by Egypt and Qatar.

In a surprising turn of events, the militant group Hamas has agreed to a cease-fire proposal put forth by Egypt and Qatar to end the seven-month long conflict with Israel. The group's leader, Ismail Haniyeh, made the announcement in a phone call with Qatar's prime minister and Egypt's intelligence minister on Monday. Both Egypt and Qatar have been working as mediators in the ongoing talks between Israel and Hamas. As of now, there has been no response from Israel regarding the announcement.

The news of this development came just hours after Israel ordered Palestinians to evacuate the southern Gaza town of Rafah, claiming it to be Hamas' last stronghold. This announcement from Hamas was met with joy and celebration by the people of Rafah, who took to the streets to express their relief and hope for peace.

While the details of the cease-fire proposal have not been made public yet, both Egyptian and Hamas officials have hinted that it will involve a series of stages. As part of the deal, Hamas is expected to release any hostages it may be holding, while Israel will gradually withdraw its troops from Gaza. However, it remains to be seen if this agreement will meet Hamas' main demand of bringing an end to the war and a complete withdrawal of Israeli forces.

The situation in the region has been tense and volatile for several months, with innocent lives being lost on both sides of the conflict. The acceptance of this cease-fire proposal by Hamas is seen as a step towards de-escalating the tensions and finding a peaceful resolution. The hope is that this agreement will pave the way for a lasting peace between Israel and Hamas, and bring an end to the suffering of the people in the region. This is a developing story and we will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available.
