USA: Israel has accepted the framework for the cease-fire agreement in Gaza

Israel has accepted the framework of a Gaza ceasefire and hostage release deal and now Hamas must make a decision on that, a US administration official said on Saturday, a day before truce talks were to resume in Egypt.

International mediators have been working for weeks to reach an agreement that would allow the fighting to end before the holy month of Ramadan begins on March 10.

The deal would pave the way for humanitarian aid to be sent to hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in northern Gaza, who aid officials say are at risk of starvation.

The Israelis  have "more or less accepted the proposal",  which includes a six-week ceasefire and the release of hostages from Hamas, who are considered at risk, including the sick, the elderly, the wounded and women, the US official said.

"Right now, the ball is in Hamas's court and we are trying to advance the effort to reach an agreement as much as we can,"  said the official, who spoke on condition of anonymity under rules set by the White House. in the context of informing journalists.

Officials from Israel and Hamas did not immediately respond to a request for comment from the Associated Press news agency.
