The first phase of the Israel-Hamas truce is set to expire on Saturday, with negotiations for the next stage still inconclusive. The ceasefire, which began on January 19, has allowed for the release of hostages and the return of bodies in exchange for Palestinian prisoners. The second phase, set to begin on Sunday, aims to secure the release of more hostages. However, there is no consensus on the start of the second phase, and a Hamas delegation is not present in Egypt for talks. The truce has allowed for aid flows into Gaza, which was heavily damaged during the war.
