00:00The ceasefire agreement in Gaza Strip provides much-needed relief for the people of Gaza,
00:08whom Prime Minister Datuk Shri Anwar Ibrahim said have endured much suffering.
00:13Anwar said on Thursday that he welcomed the agreement and acknowledged the efforts made
00:17by countries including Egypt, Qatar and the United States in mediating the agreement.
00:23He also applauded U.S. President-elect Donald Trump for his role in bringing the negotiation
00:28to fruition.
00:29He said the ceasefire must act as a stepping stone towards the long-overdue goal of establishing
00:35an independent Palestinian state.
00:38He said the reconstruction of Gaza is now a pressing priority.
00:42Other countries also welcomed the ceasefire deal, saying that it may pave the way for
00:47a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
00:50U.S. President-elect Donald Trump said on Thursday that the ceasefire agreement is a
01:04stepping stone towards a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
01:16China supports the implementation of the ceasefire agreement and will continue to provide humanitarian
01:22assistance to Gaza, restore post-war reconstruction and make active efforts.
01:28We also sincerely hope that all parties will use the Gaza ceasefire as an opportunity to
01:34promote and ease the tension in the region.
01:38Negotiators reached a phased deal on Wednesday to end the fighting in Gaza between Israel
01:42and Hamas.
01:44It outlines an initial ceasefire with the gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces from
01:48the Gaza Strip and the release of hostages taken by Hamas in exchange for Palestinian
01:54prisoners held by Israel.
01:56The deal will take effect on Sunday.
