Kremlin says Israel-Hamas deal is 'good news'

The Kremlin hails a truce deal between Israel and Hamas as “the first good news from Gaza in a very long time.”

“Russia and most countries in the world have been calling for a ceasefire and for a humanitarian pause. Because it is only on the basis of these kinds of pauses that some outlines of future attempts at a sustainable settlement can be built,” Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov tells reporters.
