1:31Now PlayingCheers and whistles rang out across Gaza City early on Friday (late on Thursday GMT) as a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas came into effect.
Across the Gaza Strip, residents took to the streets to celebrate the cessation of hostilities after an 11-day conflict that left hundreds dead.
The ceasefire began at 0200 local time (2300GMT Thursday) after both Israel and Hamas accepted an Egyptian proposal to end the violence.
At least 230 Palestinians were killed, including 65 children and 39 women, during the conflict, with 1,710 people wounded, according to the Gaza Health Ministry.
Twelve people in Israel, including a five-year-old boy and 16-year-old girl, were killed.
