Israeli official says Gaza ceasefire likely only in the morning hours

An Israeli official tells Hebrew-language media that, should there be an Egyptian-brokered ceasefire with the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group, it would likely only begin in the morning hours.

The Islamic Jihad launched nearly 500 rockets at Israel on Wednesday, according to the Israeli military, with the last apparently fired at around 11 p.m.
