The Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) armed wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, launched an attack on the Supernova Festival on October 7, which they called the "Al-Aqsa Flood." Following this, the Israeli government placed Gaza under blockade, and while attacks on the region continue, mediation efforts regarding ceasefire negotiations are also ongoing.

The Qatari Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated, "Hamas has responded positively to the ceasefire and hostage exchange proposal. We are awaiting their official response."
