a numbers to celebrate relief that the violence of the past few days was finally over. the cheers and whistles began to am local time as the sci fi officially took effect and the sky and remained come. israel's foreign ministry announced the truce after the country security cabinet unanimously accepted the deal. but there were 10 times shortly before it started. rockets were still being fired from garza and israel's military carried out at least one strikes from the streets of tel aviv. there was a mixed response. i think it's good to see fire as good for humanitarian reasons. so civilians relax a little bit on both sides. i'm skeptical though that it will really be kept for a while. i think this is fire won't last 8 hours. they will start shooting gus rockets again. both hamas

and israel, claiming victory and the conflicts, but both sides suffered and the violence. garz's homage controlled health ministry says at least $232.00 people, including more than $100.00 women and children were killed in the fighting at at least 12 people, including children, were killed. and israel after rockets managed to evade the countries and don't defense system. us president joe biden said the sci fi was a genuine opportunity for peace. he said washington would now help replenish israel defense capabilities and help the palestinian authority with humanitarian aid and reconstruction and gaza. these hostile, these have resulted in the tragic deaths of so many civilians, including children. i send my sincere condolences to all the families, israeli, and palestinian lost loved ones. my hope for
8:04 am
a full recovery from the wound. but the scars of this conflict will take a long time to heal and what was destroyed in just a few days will most likely take years to rebuild the heavens. correspondent donna reg joins me now from tel aviv donna were still in the early hours of the se size that holdings so far. yes. good morning from tel aviv here. rebecca. well 7 hours into the seas fire it seems to be holding. indeed. we've learned that just 10 minutes before the seas fires started at 2 am local time. there were still a barrel of rockets being shot from garza into israel, but so far the peace and quiet is maintained. israel is waking up into what it hopes will be a quiet weekend and an even longer quiet period of time. i've seen pictures missing them now and palestinians, understandably celebrating the si fi,
8:05 am
how's the reaction been on the israeli side? will reactions aren't meet the mix at the end of the day. but the absolute majority of the people here in israel are extremely happy about the cease fire. people whom i talked to earlier here and a very normally otherwise vivid and very lively market area. and people really wanted to see an end to the violence on both sides. however, we do need to remember that there are still voices in israel that we're hoping to see what they call somewhat of like a longer strike to hit more targets. and a lot of people are also advocating for the release of to israeli soldiers that are, are their bodies that are still being held in gaza. and the fact that they were not include, included in any deal or agreement, is something that upsets them quite a lot down. what can you tell us about the terms of this deal?
8:06 am
well, i'm surprisingly not much. so the terms of any deal, if you could even call it a deal, were not yet revealed or published, which is actually seen as somewhat of an achievement for natania. because on the other hand, natania and is really government, they declared that this is an unconditional, sees fire, we will hold fire without any condition whatsoever. but this also means that he's not able to be held into account or to come under criticism for any of a so called terms or any decisions that would perhaps not be favorable by israeli public. however, if we are already calling it unconditional, we do know that we have egyptian officials and american officials on their way to discuss terms of a deal. so i guess it's not really that unconditional. and the terms of that so called deal will be revealed in the next few hours and days given that then what are the prospects say fine will last and what happens if it doesn't?
8:07 am
well of course, this also depends on what you call last. and normally what we seeing here is, israelis are already used to call these wars are fighting rounds or cycles. most people i talked to here, they can't believe that the truth will last more than perhaps 2 or 3 years if, if we are very lucky. however, so far like you can see, no, no exchange of fire has happened in these like 7 hours. so it is at least believed that there's going to be a calm for months or the following years to come. we had us president joe biden, we had, we said earlier saying that this is a quote, genuine opportunity for progress toward pace. the get a sense that there's an appetite for a new round of pace talks that go beyond this space 5 deal. well, it's pretty clear that we're not going to see a renewed all slo accords here. i think both israelis and palestinians are quite
8:08 am
despaired. and this, the entire concept of peace agreement is out of the israeli lexicon for a long time. we're normally talking about months of quiet years of quiet. however, with a new administration in washington and with a bit of a different term and terminology coming, especially from the democrats in the white house, it is very likely that joe biden and his administration will try to push for something a bit more sustainable. for now, there are other wounds bleeding wounds in the israeli society and the palestinian society that need to be healed. first just brings they've done. now the thought is in place, one of the next immediate steps you mentioned a chipped and us on their way. but what are the other steps being taken now? right, so apart from delegations coming to discuss the deal, the immediate steps, both israel and the palestinian tory territories will have to take is obviously
8:09 am
fixed. the damage being caused and gaza is really strikes for hamas. and the palestinians, but here the main thing that we'll have to live with in the israel's mix cities of jewish, eric population wounds that will take perhaps years to heal easter, after only 11 days of war. this is something that the municipalities and the army in general and the government will have to really think how they're fixing this. and thank you very much for that update data correspondent, donna reg as in television. but i sent out some other stories making headlines. this are thousands of anti military protesters have turned out for a brief march in me and most capital young on opponents of the february who have resorted to short shows of defiance for britain crackdown by the you into a local rights group. says security forces have killed more than 800 people. a
