Yesterday, after more than a year of devastating war in Gaza, a ceasefire was announced between Israel and Hamas. News of the deal prompted celebrations in the rubble-filled streets of Gaza and relief in Israel. But the ceasefire isn't a done deal yet. The agreement was announced by Hamas and by U.S., Qatari, and Egyptian negotiators. But Israel hasn't officially approved it.

Israeli officials delayed a vote on the deal. And Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has accused Hamas of reneging on parts of the agreement. A Hamas official told a news outlet that Netanyahu's accusation was, quote, baseless. The drama underscored how tenuous this historic deal is. So we seem to have an agreement for a ceasefire, but do you think we really have an end to this war?
