Palestinian Factions Discuss Ceasefire Agreement with Israel

Palestinian factions, including Hamas and Islamic Jihad, have been negotiating a ceasefire agreement with Israel through international mediators. Key points include Israel halting attacks and withdrawals from Gaza, opening border crossings, and stopping selective assassinations. Hamas and Islamic Jihad have expressed reservations about the current formula and stressed that any agreement must be binding on both parties. The implementation of the second phase of the agreement is contingent upon Israel's full compliance with the first phase.
