There are, yes. The most important ones are Egypt and Jordan who've made peace with Israel long ago, despite being at war multiple times before that (though the relationships aren't great, they're ok). In recent times more and more Arab countries which have been hostile in the past have started to both officially acknowledge Israel's existence and some even made peace deals, despite not actually being at war - it's a strong statement and is followed up by economic cooperation. While the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is really going nowhere, those recent agreements certainly shed a bit of an optimistic light on (some) of the Middle East.

Though it's worth noting, that a big part of the reason these recent agreements are happening is common enemies, namely Iran, being a bat-shit state
