The US president's announced the first phase of a Gaza peace plan has been agreed by Israel and Hamas.
The ceasefire deal will see the release of all remaining hostages held by Hamas, and Israeli troops will withdraw to an agreed position.
President Donald Trump says he may visit the Gaza Strip in the coming days, and he will likely go to Egypt, where discussions are being held.
But James Zogby, from the Arab American Institute, says there's still a lot of work ahead to bring lasting peace to Palestine.
Meanwhile, the Taoiseach and the Tanaiste are both welcoming the deal.
Micheal Martin is urging all sides to abide by the ceasefire, for all hostages to be released and for an immediate surge of aid to Palestine.
While Simon Harris says Ireland stands ready to assist in every practical way.
