As the security cabinet meets to discuss the terms of an Egypt-backed ceasefire, Palestinian sources report that Israel is still attacking targets in the Gaza Strip early Tuesday morning, Israel Radio reports.

A Palestinian on a motorcycle is killed near Rafah, says a source. The Israeli Air Force is continuing to target the homes of terrorist leaders and operatives, including that of senior Hamas commander Marwan Issa.
