Good Thursday morning! Here's what Nick Reed covers:

  • Trump was the first to announce a ceasefire deal was reached in Gaza between Israel and Hamas on Wednesday.
  • Biden snapped at a reporter asking if Trump deserves credit for the Israel-Hamas ceasefire and hostage release.
  • Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Thursday accused Hamas of backing out of a cease-fire deal to release hostages and bring a pause to more than a year of fighting in the Gaza Strip.
  • A top Qatari official said that Trump's pressure and the negotiating work of the President-elect's envoy Steve Witkoff helped push a long stalled ceasefire and hostage release deal between Hamas and Israel "over the line."
  • State Department spokesman Matthew Miller also praised Trump's team.
  • John Kirby says that both Biden and Trump worked as 'one team' in securing cease-fire deal.
  • Trump said his incoming administration would look to further the Abraham Accord agreements.
