BBC NEWS | Middle East | Palestinian rivals in unity deal

I think it's a good sign. There's obviously a lot of work still to be done... but this sort of thing gives me hope.

As the signing took place, celebratory gunfire erupted in Gaza City, while fireworks lit up the sky.

Gunmen who until a few days ago were shooting at each other are firing in the air in celebration, our correspondent says.

The streets which were deserted are now full of cars, crowds celebrating, people waving the flags, often of Hamas and Fatah simultaneously, he reports.
