Abstract
Israel signed a ceasefire with Palestine on January 17, 2025, after 15 months of war following Hamas’ attack on Israel on October 7, 2023. During the initial attack, Hamas killed more than 1,200 people and seized 251 Israeli hostages. A key part of the ceasefire involved the return of these hostages.
