[Dave Anthony]

Israel's security cabinet is about to gather and implement a ceasefire for Gaza. I'm Dave Anthony, FOX News. It's the first phase in the plan that Israel and Hamas have agreed to, brokered by President Trump, trying to end the two year war.

[Gideon Saar]

We hope that all the parts of the plan will be implemented.

[Dave Anthony]

That's Israel's foreign Minister Gideon Saar, interviewed minutes ago by fox's Jennifer Griffin.

[Jennifer Griffin]

If Hamas carries out its part of the agreement, is this the end of the war?

[Gideon Saar]

Well, it's the implementation of the first phase. We don't have any intention to renew the war, but parts of the commitment is, for example, the disarmament of Hamas, that they will lay down their arms.

[Dave Anthony]

Now the agreement has been cheered in Gaza where Palestinians were singing and dancing, hopeful about the end of the fighting.

[Jonathan Savage]

And in Israel, too, singing, dancing, fireworks in the street.

[Unnamed Interviewee (Gil Dickman's cousin)]

I want to thank President Trump for.

Fox's Jonathan Savage Part of the plan, Hamas would release all the remaining 48 hostages, 20 of them believed to be alive. We expect to hear from President Trump next hour at a Cabinet meeting. He posted on Truth Social it's a great day in the Middle East. And moments ago, Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu posted on X give President Trump the Nobel Peace Prize. He deserves it. For a ninth day. The government is closed with a standoff getting even more heated in Congress. Fox's Chad Perkin reports.

[Chad Perkin]

House Speaker Mike Johnson challenged Democratic Arizona Senators Mark Kelly and Ruben Gallego after they protested outside the speaker's office. I'm going to get back to work. These gentlemen had a publicity stunt. Here you see the issue. They need to go and vote to reopen the government. Get your the House has done its work. And even if they do anything, Democrats.
