Donald Trump orders Israel to stop bombing Gaza as Hamas agrees to free hostages

Hamas has agreed to release all the remaining Israeli hostages but the group wants further negotiations on a number of key points outlined in the US peace plan.

In a statement, the group said it agreed "to release all Israeli prisoners, both living and dead, according to the exchange formula contained in President Trump's proposal" - if the proper conditions for the exchanges are met.
