Displaced Gazans were hopeful and wary today after a ceasefire between Hamas and Israel began.
Hannin Musa told NBC News that despite all the loss and destruction in Gaza, she is happy about the ceasefire.
“Because we still survive,” Musa said. “Palestinians deserve life and nothing but happiness is appropriate for them.”
Musa explained that returning home is not easy for Palestinians in Gaza, where homes have been razed and essentials, like water and food, are unavailable.
Musa was also skeptical about the ceasefire deal and whether it will “guarantee justice.”
“We need guarantee all of them adhere to the terms of the plan,” she said.
Ahmad Al Khatib expressed the same skepticism about the ceasefire there have been previous agreements that Israel did not adhere to.
Al Khatib had a message for Trump, whose efforts to secure the deal he said he appreciates.
“We need some guarantees, please, we need some guarantees,” he said.
