Vancouver resident Nasser Najjar said he cried tears of joy after hearing that a ceasefire had been reached in the Israel-Hamas war in Gaza on Wednesday. Najjar, who lived in Gaza from 1999 to 2015, still has family in the region where the 15-month-long conflict has killed tens of thousands and displaced hundreds of thousands.
