Deal would obligate Hamas to halt tunneling activity
One of the clauses in the ceasefire deal being drafted in Cairo obligates Hamas and other militant factions in Gaza to stop all tunnel digging activities, Ynet reports, quoting Egyptian daily al-Shorouk. Thisת in addition to halting rocket-fire and any other hostile actions against Israel.
Israel, according to the report, also commits to stop all military activity in Gaza, including any further ground incursions, and to open its crossings to Gaza in order to ease the blockade of the Strip.
