Gazans took to the streets with Palestinian flags in their hands after Qatari Prime Minister Sheikh Mohammed bin Abdulrahman Al-Thani officially announced that a prisoner exchange and ceasefire agreement had been reached between Israel and Hamas in the Gaza Strip yesterday.

The ceasefire agreement, which includes a prisoner exchange agreement in the Gaza Strip, is expected to be put to a vote in the Israeli parliament today and will be in force as of January 19.

Al-Thani stated that the ceasefire was a “beginning” and that now mediators and the international community must work to achieve lasting peace.

US President Joe Biden stated that the agreement was the result of the US’s “stubborn and meticulous” diplomacy and that the outlines of the ceasefire agreement were laid out in May of last year. Meanwhile, Trump said that the agreement was a result of his victory in the presidential election in November, which has sent a signal of peace to the world.

Seven newly identified victims of the 1995 Srebrenica genocide were buried at the Potocari Memorial Cemetery in Bosnia and Herzegovina on the 30th anniversary of the massacre. The genocide, recognized by international courts, claimed over 8,300 Muslim lives during the Bosnian War.

The ceremony drew leaders and officials from across the region and Europe, including Turkish Parliament Speaker Numan Kurtulmuş, Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenković, and French and NATO representatives.

Bosnian official Denis Bećirović emphasized the years of propaganda and planning that led to the genocide, while French President Emmanuel Macron warned that denialism has no place in EU-aspiring nations. NATO’s Mark Rutte called it a lasting tragedy linking the Netherlands and Bosnia.

Sirens marked the remembrance across cities, and symbolic tributes—including a silent jump from Mostar Bridge and the release of lilies—honored the victims. The newly buried include victims aged between 17 and 67.
