Israel will restrict aid into Gaza and delay plans to open the Rafah border crossing from Egypt at least until after Wednesday, reports say.

Israel and Hamas took steps toward ending the two-year war that has devastated the Gaza Strip, but hard work lies ahead.

Trump added, "This is not only the end of a war, this is the end of an age of terror and death and the beginning of the age of faith and hope and of God. It's the start of a grand concord of lasting harmony for Israel and all the nations of what will soon be a magnificent region."

House Speaker Mike Johnson partnered with the Israeli Knesset speaker to nominate President Donald Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize as the Middle East peace deal takes effect.
