<p>Israel Hamas Ceasefire: The day the entire world had been eagerly waiting for has finally arrived. Yes, the bloody conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza, ongoing for over a year, has finally ceased. An official ceasefire has been declared between the two. Both Israel and Hamas have agreed to release each other&#8217;s hostages, following which US President Joe Biden announced the successful negotiation of a ceasefire and hostage agreement between Israel and Hamas. This ceasefire will be completed in three phases. The deal includes a complete ceasefire, the withdrawal of the Israeli Defence Force (IDF) from Gaza, and the release of hostages, including Americans, in the first phase.</p>

<p>After announcing the ceasefire (Israel Hamas Ceasefire), Joe Biden presented the three phases for its completion. He stated that this agreement is structured in three phases –</p>



<p>1- The first phase will last 6 weeks. This includes a complete ceasefire, the withdrawal of the Israeli Defence Force (IDF) from all populated areas of Gaza (IDF in Gaza), and the release of many hostages held by Hamas, including women, the elderly, and the injured. American hostages will also be part of the first phase hostage release. In return, Israel will release hundreds of Palestinian prisoners, and during the first phase, Palestinians can also return to their neighbours in all areas of Gaza.</p>



<p>2- During these 6 weeks, Israel will negotiate the necessary arrangements to reach the second phase, which is the permanent end of the war. There are several details to negotiate to move from phase-1 to phase-2. But according to the plan, if it takes more than 6 weeks, the ceasefire will continue until the talks are ongoing.</p>



<p>When the second phase begins, there will be an exchange for the release of the remaining surviving hostages, including male soldiers, and all Israeli forces will be withdrawn from Gaza, and the temporary ceasefire will become permanent.</p>



<p>3- In the final and third phase, the last remains of the deceased hostages will be returned to their families, and a major reconstruction plan for Gaza will begin.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Likely to come into effect from January 19</h2>



<p>Following the release of a joint statement by Qatar, Egypt, and the United States, the three phases outlined by Joe Biden are expected to come into effect from January 19. This is because the Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs has stated in a statement that the State of Qatar, the Arab Republic of Egypt, and the United States have announced that the parties to the conflict in Gaza have reached an agreement to release hostages and prisoners in exchange for hostages and return to lasting peace. This agreement is expected to come into effect on January 19, 2025.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trump takes credit for the ceasefire!</h2>



<p>On the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, US President-elect Donald Trump has attempted to take credit for the ceasefire. This is evident from his statement. Donald Trump has stated that progress towards this ceasefire (Israel-Hamas Ceasefire) had already been made before his return to the White House. He also emphasised that &#8220;amazing things&#8221; are likely to happen once his administration is fully established and in power.</p>



<p>Sharing a post on the social media platform Truth Social, he (Donald Trump) wrote, “This epic ceasefire agreement was only possible as a result of our historic victory in November, as it signalled to the entire world that my administration would seek peace and bargain to ensure the safety of all Americans and our allies. We have achieved so much even before arriving at the White House. Just imagine what more victories my administration will be able to achieve for the United States when I return to the White House and my administration is fully established!”</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Benjamin Netanyahu thanks America</h2>



<p>Following the ceasefire (Israel Hamas Ceasefire) and hostage agreement between Israel and Hamas, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu discussed with US President-elect Donald Trump and current President Joe Biden. He thanked Joe Biden for the release of the hostages and this agreement. Both leaders also agreed to meet soon in America to further these issues.</p>



<p>Netanyahu wrote on his social media account that they are committed to returning the hostages and said that America will work with Israel to ensure that Gaza never becomes a haven for terrorism. Netanyahu also thanked President Joe Biden for America&#8217;s help in advancing the hostage deal.</p>

<p>Doctors say Saif sustained six injuries, two of which are deep. One injury is near his spine. The extent of the damage will only be known after surgery. Meanwhile, a post by Kareena Kapoor is going viral. She posted it on her Instagram eight hours ago.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Kareena Kapoor&#8217;s Viral Post</h2>



<p>She shared a story on Instagram, writing: &#8220;Girls&#8217; night.&#8221; She tagged her sister Karisma Kapoor, Sonam Kapoor, and Rhea Kapoor. People are now speculating whether she was partying at the time of the attack.</p>



<figure class="wp-block-image"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="352" height="631" src="https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/kareena.png" alt="Saif Ali Khan Stabbed" class="wp-image-19319715" srcset="https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/kareena.png 352w, https://cms.patrika.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/kareena.png?resize=167,300 167w" sizes="(max-width: 352px) 100vw, 352px" /></figure>



<p>However, it is difficult to say definitively whether she was partying or at home at the time of the attack. Kareena has since released a statement appealing for calm, asking fans not to pay attention to rumours and speculation regarding the attack on Saif.</p>



<p>Kareena&#8217;s team stated: &#8216;Saif is undergoing surgery at the hospital. The rest of the family is safe. We request the media and fans to remain patient. The police are investigating the matter. Thank you for your concern.&#8217;</p>

<p><strong>Bomb Threat Delhi Schools:</strong> A political storm has erupted in Delhi after a class 12 student was apprehended for spreading bomb threats to 400 schools.

South Africa Gold Mine Disaster: 100 Dead, 500 Trapped


<p>At least 100 illegal miners have perished in the abandoned Buffelsfontein gold mine in the North West province of South Africa, succumbing to starvation and dehydration. Eighteen bodies have been recovered so far, while 26 miners have been rescued alive. These miners had been trapped for months. Over 500 miners are still believed to be inside the mine. </p>



<p>A cellphone recovered from one of the rescued miners contained two videos showing dozens of bodies wrapped in plastic bags inside a dark tunnel. The rescue team is prioritising the rescue of the remaining survivors. </p>



<p>The mine is reportedly approximately three kilometres deep. Police spokesperson Brigadier Sebata Mokgabone stated that they are currently confirming the number of fatalities and are hopeful of rescuing the remaining miners. Buffelsfontein is one of South Africa&#8217;s deepest mines.</p>



<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Police Cut Off Miners&#8217; Food Supply</h2>



<p>It has been reported that the police attempted to seal off the mine to force the miners out, removing their ropes and cutting off their food supply lines in an effort to end the illegal mining operation.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Illegal Mining Common in South Africa</h2>



<p>South Africa, known for its vast gold reserves, has a significant number of gold mines. Illegal mining is prevalent in many areas. Groups of miners often illegally enter abandoned mines, left behind by companies due to unprofitability, to search for remaining gold. They live underground for months, bringing food, water, generators, and other equipment. Local communities near the mine report that many of their relatives were trapped in the mine for approximately six months, since July. Companies abandon mines that are no longer profitable, leading to informal miners illegally accessing and exploiting any remaining gold reserves.</p>



<p>These illegal operations are often run by syndicates who employ these miners and contractors. While they bring their own supplies, they also rely on others on the surface for resupply.</p>



<p>Police last year cut the miners&#8217; ropes and pulley systems used for accessing the mine in an attempt to force them out. A cabinet minister stated that the aim was to &#8220;eradicate illegal miners&#8221; and that the government would not provide assistance as they are criminals.</p>
