The Gaza ceasefire will begin this evening after the government officially ratifies the agreement, the Prime Minister’s Office tells The Times of Israel.
This comes after several Hebrew-language news outlets reported that the ceasefire had gone into effect with the signing of the agreement, which was slated to have taken place in Egypt at noon, citing a Reuters report sourced to Egyptian state media .
The government is scheduled to vote on the measure at 6 p.m.
