The UN Secretary-General António Guterres welcomes the announcement that Israel and Hamas have agreed on the first step in the plan for peace in Gaza and that the hostages will be released.

Guterres thanks USA, Qatar, Egypt and Turkey for the countries' role in the peace process in a post on X.

"The UN will support the implementation of the agreement fully and expand the delivery of humanitarian support", he writes and continues:

"I urge all affected parties to take advantage of this important opportunity to establish a credible political path forward towards an end to the occupation."

Guterres hopes that the agreement will lead to a two-state solution where both Israelis and Palestinians can "live in peace and security".
