Palestinians said to agree to 3-day truce

The Palestinian delegation in Cairo reportedly accepts an Egyptian proposal that would call for a three-day ceasefire in order to reinstate talks for a long-term agreement, Army Radio reports, citing Palestinian media.

The proposal was sent to Jerusalem for approval, but a PMO official responding to the report says he “could not go beyond what Netanyahu said this morning.”

At the start of the cabinet meeting earlier today, the prime minister repeated Israel’s stance that “it would not negotiate under fire,” and emphasized that the military campaign was ongoing.
