Negotiations to a permanent ceasefire would immediately begin on the first day of the 60-day truce, according to the proposal. The terms of the agreement would also allow humanitarian aid to enter “immediately” to Gaza and to be distributed “through contained channels”, including the United Nations and the Red Crescent, according to the proposal.
