The Gaza ceasefire will begin at 08:30 local time (06:30 GMT) on Sunday morning, it has been confirmed
It comes after Israel's government formally approved the deal late on Friday, clearing the way for the first hostages and Palestinian prisoners to be exchanged
The historic agreement was a struggle to get over the line, our correspondent in Jerusalem reports, but it's finally there.
Meanwhile on Saturday, the Israeli military says it intercepted a missile launched from Yemen that triggered sirens across the country
Hamas attacked Israel on 7 October 2023, killing about 1,200 people and taking 251 back to Gaza as hostages
The attack triggered a massive Israeli offensive on Gaza, during which more than 46,800 Palestinians have been killed, according to the Hamas-run health ministry.
