The ceasefire welcomes the United Nations President’s call for effective efforts to resolve the root causes of the conflict and achieve national reconciliation.
After Egypt facilitated an agreement between Israel and Hamas to stop the 11-day conflict, a ceasefire took effect in the Gaza Strip.
Thousands of people in Gaza and the Palestinian territories rushed to the streets to celebrate the ceasefire, waving flags and flashing the V-shaped sign of victory.
In the Israeli bombing, at least 232 Palestinians, including 65 children, were killed.
In Israel, 12 people were killed, including two children.
