The deal reached between Israel and Hamas in Sharm el-Sheikh raises questions, many of which remain unanswered. Can Israel prevent Hamas from regaining its strength? What will the IDF withdrawal look like? Here’s a breakdown of what’s known so far.
Israeli strike on Hamas negotiators in Qatar last month backfired, galvanizing Trump to warn Netanyahu time had come to end the conflict, Washington Post reports. "Without the United States, Israel will not exist. And you don't have to say that," US official says.
"He deserves it!": Netanyahu praises US leader on X with AI-generated image, just hours before the Oslo committee was set to announce the 2025 winners. Israel officially approves deal in long cabinet vote. Official Nobel nominations sealed for 50 years, with submission deadline long passed.
