The coalition government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has agreed on the Gaza ceasefire deal with Hamas that will go into force on today.

The Palestinian Authority announced that it is ready to assume its full responsibilities in the Gaza Strip following the implementation of the ceasefire agreement.

At least one hundred and twenty-two Palestinians, including thirty-three children, have been killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza since the announcement on Wednesday night that a ceasefire deal had been reached between Israel and Hamas.
