Celebrations erupted in the Middle East after Israel and Hamas agreed to a ceasefire deal, the first major breakthrough after two years of war. The agreement sets in motion the release of hostages and a partial Israeli troop pullback. Byeon Ye-young reports. U.S. President Donald Trump announced the breakthrough on Truth Social on Wednesday night, calling it the first stage of his "Gaza Peace Plan." He said the ceasefire agreement is a great day for the Arab and Muslim world, Israel, and the United States.

Under Phase 1, the agreement includes the release of 20 Israeli hostages and a phased withdrawal of Israeli troops from most of Gaza, with Israeli forces pulling back to a designated "initial withdrawal line" proposed by U.S. mediators. The group of Israeli hostages is expected to be released within the next few days. Trump also hinted at a possible visit to the region. "I may go there, sometime toward the end of the week, maybe on Sunday, actually." Celebrations broke out across the region.

In Khan Younis, Palestinians took to the streets. "Thank God for the ceasefire, the end of bloodshed and killing. I am not the only one happy, all of the Gaza Strip is happy, all the Arab people, all of the world is happy with the ceasefire and the end of bloodshed. Thank you and all the love to those who stood with us." In Tel Aviv's Hostages Square, former hostages and families of those still held in Gaza also celebrated. A person dressed as Trump waved U.S. and Israeli flags, dancing alongside a guitar player as families and supporters cheered and sang along.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu welcomed the accord, saying he will convene his cabinet to approve what he called a "historic achievement." His office said he and President Trump spoke by phone to reaffirm their commitment to bringing all hostages home. Hamas, meanwhile, said the deal came after what it described as responsible and serious negotiations under Trump's initiative.

A senior Hamas official told AP News that the group secured guarantees from Washington that the war will not resume, and that Israeli forces will pull back from densely populated areas as aid and heavy equipment enter to clear debris. World leaders praised the Gaza deal online. The United Nations also welcomed the peace agreement, with Secretary-General António Guterres pledging full UN support for its implementation and expanded humanitarian assistance to Gaza.
