A temporary truce period between Israel and Hamas has begun – with the first group of Israeli women and children due to be released later today.<\/p>\n

There has been no official word from either side as to whether there has been a pause in the fighting – however, the truce period was due to start at 7am local time (5am UK).<\/p>\n

The handover of up to 50 Israeli <\/strong>captives is expected to be carried out in stages as the temporary pause in hostilities gets under way.<\/p>\n

The agreement – brokered by Qatari mediators<\/strong> <\/strong>– will see a halt to the Israel Defence Forces (IDF) bombardment of Gaza<\/strong> to allow a swap of hostages for Israeli prisoners.<\/p>\n

As many as 30 Palestinians being held in Israeli jails are due to be sent in the opposite direction.<\/p>\n

The temporary truce is expected to last for four days.<\/p>\n

More than 13,300 Palestinians have been killed since Israel’s bombardment began, according to the Hamas-run health ministry in the territory.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
