The White House welcomed Saturday the announcement of a ceasefire between Israel and Gaza-based militants, and praised the Egyptian government for brokering the deal, reports BSS.

"US officials worked closely with regional partners to achieve this resolution to the hostilities to prevent further loss of life and restore calm for both Israelis and Palestinians," White House press spokesperson Karine Jean-Pierre said in a statement.
