Here's what you need to know:

An indefinite ceasefire has been established, halting 50 days of warfare between Israel and Palestine. Egypt helped mediate the agreement. The US sees this as positive.

The truce brings Israel and Palestine back to terms similar to those agreed upon after the 2012 Gaza war.

Israel agreed to ease restrictions on Gaza. More aid and construction materials will be allowed in, and border crossings will be opened immediately.

Palestinian fishermen can now go as far as six miles offshore, instead of just three.

Other Palestinian demands, such as the establishment of a seaport and an airport, are set to be discussed in the near future in Cairo. Israel would also like to see Gaza demilitarized.

There are many unanswered questions surrounding the future of Gaza.

Indefinite ceasefire brokered in Gaza. The terms aren't much, but hopefully future talks will prove more fruitful. — Johnny Chiodini (@johnneh) August 26, 2014

Some feel that Hamas should have agreed upon a ceasefire long before this.

Terms of new #Gaza Ceasefire are same as July 15 ceasefire. What exactly did you win, #Hamas? — Omar J (@moolahraj) August 26, 2014

How many more people would be alive today if Hamas had accepted Egypt's ceasefire proposal on July 15, or any of the others offered since? — Avi Mayer (@AviMayer) August 26, 2014

More than 2,100 people were killed during the fighting, including around 500 children. The majority of casualties were Palestinian.

I know what the human cost, the infrastructure toll, Israel's bombs had on Gaza. But right now,I want to weep in relief it's over for now. — Hend (@LibyaLiberty) August 26, 2014

There is no clear victor.

Hamas says about to announce ceasefire. Expect claims of victory from all parties. #Israel #Gaza #Palestine — benwedeman (@bencnn) August 26, 2014

Yet, one might argue that Hamas won a political victory.

Gaza's victory in forcing Israel to open the crossings, increse fishing distance and reduce no go "buffer zone" must not be taken lightly. — Palestine Video (@PalestineVideo) August 26, 2014

Everything seems more beautiful than ever! Free life is more beautiful than everything. Life worths! Enjoy :) #Gaza #freedom — Guess what (@Farah_Gazan) August 26, 2014

Others are less hopeful and feel this is only temporary. Only time will tell.

Ceasefire in Gaza. But for how long? 1 month? 1 year? Like the one in 2012? This is not a permanent solution. — Umar (@umerhusein) August 26, 2014
