Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas calls on the international community to pressure Israel to commit to a proposal for a ceasefire in Gaza mediated by Egypt and Qatar after Hamas accepted it, Palestinian official news agency WAFA reported.
Israeli officials are studying the offer, and have told Hebrew media it appears to have new terms they never agreed to.
