As for the pause in fighting, there's been contradictory information to emerge concerning when precisely the temporary ceasefire will take place. It was previously reported that the stoppage in fighting would only occur after the first round of hostages go free. If the pause proves successful, more hostage releases could be pending. Qatar has issued the following statement related to this: "What we have felt is that they are committed to this highly. Our aim is to reach this agreement and to pave the way for more pauses that can put an end to this war that everyone is suffering from. Hopefully, the end will be very soon and we need to build this and that in order to reach a lasting permanent ceasefire." Prior to the deal, four hostages were already released and another was freed by Israeli forces, including Americans Judith Raanan and her daughter Natalie who were released on October 20, senior-aged women Nurit Cooper and Yocheved Lifschitz, who were released on October 23 and Israeli soldier Ori Megidish, who was freed during ground operations in Gaza on October 29. Meanwhile, Israel is still standing firm in its vow to eradicate Hamas, which means that the release of hostages would not be the end of the conflict. "The war continues," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said last week in Tel Aviv. "We continue until we have achieved complete victory … Eliminating Hamas, liberating our captives and making sure that post-Hamas there will be no threat to Israel," he added.#BREAKING: Qatar foreign ministry on Gaza humanitarian pause deal:
