Unilateral Termination Of The Contract

Question: I have rented a house its contract is notarized in a 3-year lease. I have been hiring for 2 years now and want to terminate the lease.

There is no clause on unilaterally terminating the contract, but only in general terms “in accordance with the provisions of the Civil Code and the Housing Law.” Please ask, am I entitled to unilaterally terminate the lease? What if I must do to avoid contract penalty?
