Report: Israel weighing ‘improved’ ceasefire proposal from Egypt
An unconfirmed report on Channel 12 says Israel has received an “improved” ceasefire proposal from Egypt, and is reviewing its outlines.
The network says Islamic Jihad is no longer demanding Israel permanently end assassinations, or hand over the body of Khader Adnan, the hunger-striking Islamic Jihad prisoner whose death in Israeli custody precipitated the current round of conflict.
The network also claims that Islamic Jihad has already sought to end the fighting after suffering significant losses in recent days, but that the organization’s leadership abroad has so far rejected this.
