The Guardian: Gaza ceasefire to begin on Friday morning with hostage releases to follow
Negotiators work out final details of four-day truce between Israel and Hamas after seven weeks of conflict
A four-day ceasefire in Gaza between Israel and Hamas will begin on Friday morning, a day later than originally announced, after negotiators worked out final details of the deal, which will lead to the release of dozens of hostages held by militants as well as Palestinians imprisoned by Israel.
The diplomatic breakthrough promises the first pause in seven weeks of war in Gaza and some relief both for the 2.3 million Palestinians in the territory who have endured intensive Israeli bombardment, and for families in Israel fearful for the fate of their loved ones taken captive during the bloody attack launched last month by Hamas that triggered the conflict.

Isreal is going to get a few non combatants released. While the reporting suggests no Palestinians with convictions will be released, I'm pretty sure battle hardened Palestinian soldiers who were captured on the battlefield will be released as part of the deal as they haven't been "convicted." They will return to the fight rested and refreshed. Furthermore the four day ceasefire provides the Palestinian military breathing space to rest and rearm which they will. It gets worse for Israel. The primary purpose of the aid convoys is to provide weapons, food, and other things the Palestinian military needs. As a supporter of Israel, I do not like this deal.
Israel is a sovereign country and a staunch ally. They've agreed to this. I pray it somehow works out well for them.
