"Relentlessly bombarded and starved Palestinians in Gaza have reacted with relief and jubilation to the announcement of a ceasefire deal aimed at ending Israel's genocidal war in Gaza. As word of the agreement spread through the besieged enclave, residents of southern Gaza's Khan Younis took to the streets to celebrate what many hoped would mark the first real reprieve from Israeli attacks since a fragile truce was shattered by Israel more than six months ago."
"Thank God for this ceasefire, the end of bloodshed and killing all of Gaza is happy, Gaza resident Abdul Majeed Abd Rabbo said. These are the moments that are considered historic, long-awaited by Palestinian citizens, added resident Khaled Shaat. The joy we saw a short time ago in the street is relief from the massacres, killing and genocide. Al Jazeera correspondent in Gaza, Hani Mahmoud, said there has been a collective sigh of relief among the enclave's embattled population."
