On Monday, Hamas agreed to an Egyptian proposal to release five living captives in exchange for a weeks-long ceasefire. The terms of the deal also include the resumption of humanitarian aid into Gaza and the release of Palestinian prisoners.

In Australia, groups advocating for an end to the violence in Gaza are set to join hundreds of anti-war demonstrators at the Avalon Air Show, near Melbourne. The rally will coincide with the country’s largest aerospace and defense expo, which will feature weapons manufacturers, including Israeli Aerospace Industries and Elbit Systems. Police have announced a strong presence around the event, which will hold trade days from Tuesday to Friday, with the public airshow running from Friday to Sunday.
