Describing the deal as &quot;epic,&quot; Trump said the deal could only have been reached because of his &quot;historic&quot; election victory, as it &quot;signaled to the whole world that my administration will seek peace and negotiate agreements to ensure the safety of all Americans and our allies&quot;.He pledged that his national security team and his Middle East envoy pick, Steve Witkoff, would continue to &quot;work closely with Israel and our allies to ensure that Gaza NEVER again becomes a haven for terrorists.&quot;&quot;We will continue to promote peace through strength throughout the region as we build on the momentum of this cease-fire to further expand the historic Abraham Accords. This is just the beginning of great things to come for America and, indeed, the world! So much has been accomplished, and yet we are not even in the White House. &quot;Just imagine all the wonderful things that will happen when I return to the White House and my administration is fully confirmed to secure even more victories for the United States of America,&quot; Trump wrote.Biden confirmed: Agreement agreedUS President Joseph Biden officially announced today that Israel and Hamas have reached an agreement on a truce and the release of hostages that will end the conflict in Gaza and increase humanitarian aid to Palestinian civilians.&quot;Today, after months of intensive diplomacy by the United States, along with Egypt and Qatar, Israel and Hamas reached an agreement on a ceasefire and hostages,&quot; Biden said in a statement.This agreement, as he pointed out, will stop the fighting in Gaza, increase much-needed humanitarian aid to Palestinian civilians and reunite hostages with their families after more than 15 months of captivity, reports Reuters.&quot;Soon the hostages will return to their families,&quot; he said.
