Timeline of the Gaza Deal Implementation
After Trump’s announcement that Israel and Hamas signed the first phase of the Gaza ceasefire plan, here’s how the coming days will unfold:
Thursday (Oct 9)
· 12:00 PM Cairo time — Signing ceremony of the agreement; ceasefire goes into effect on the ground.
· Israel’s security cabinet (5 PM) and government (6 PM) meet to finalize approval.
· Following approval, a 72-hour countdown begins for Hamas to release all living hostages “in one fell swoop,” without public ceremonies.
· Within 24 hours, the IDF will withdraw to the agreed “Yellow Line,” leaving Israel in control of ~53% of Gaza.
Friday: IDF completes its redeployment to the Yellow Line.
Saturday–Monday
· Hostage release expected. Trump hinted “everyone will return on Monday.”
· Trump arrives in Israel Sunday; may address the Knesset.
· Simultaneously, Israel will free ~1,950 Palestinian prisoners, including: 1,700 Gazans detained since Oct 7, 2023 & 250 Palestinians serving life sentences
The deal excludes Hamas’s Nukhba Force members and top commanders like Marwan Barghouti.
By Monday, all living hostages are to be released, Israeli forces redeployed, and the first phase of the Trump plan completed.

The WHO now states on its website:
Vaccination against COVID-19 can trigger multiple sclerosis through cross-reactive CD4+-T cells that recognize the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 and myelin peptides.
In other words: Your own immune system destroys the nerve pathways and then attacks your brain and spinal cord.
