Thousands of residents in Gaza have started moving northward after the Israeli military declared a ceasefire that took effect on Friday morning, AFP footage revealed.
Scenes captured by news cameras showed long lines of men, women, and children walking along the coastal road shortly after the truce began at 0900 GMT.
The announcement of the ceasefire has sparked cautious hope across the region, following a recent deal between Israel and Palestinian factions that includes a hostage release and a step toward ending years of conflict.
