A ceasefire between Israel and Hamas has held in Gaza for a third day, ahead of the expected release of Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners, as well as an address by U.S. President Donald Trump to Israel's parliament.
Thousands of Palestinians are traveling north towards Gaza City, which has been the focus of Israeli attacks over the past two months, hopeful that the ceasefire will bring an end to the war.
No statement from Trump or other officials has been released regarding the current situation.
