Negotiators from Israel and Hamas signed a hostage release and ceasefire agreement in Doha on Thursday, the Times of Israel reported, citing an Arab official involved in the mediation.

The Israeli government is slated to vote on the agreement by Saturday night, delaying the ceasefire and the release of the first hostages to Monday.

The deal was announced earlier this week, but it faced delays over the list of Palestinian prisoners to be released. Hamas sought to include militant leaders serving life sentences, but Israel initially blocked their release.
