Israel Agrees on Principles of Ceasefire in Gaza, Hamas Says Recognizes “Positive Signs” in Proposal

A ceasefire proposal crafted by France and Egypt has been well-received by Israel who has agreed on the principles of the deal but cautioned “the challenge is now to get the details to match the principles.”

Now in its second week of military operations in the Gaza Strip, Israel had halted its attacks for a three-hour period on Wednesday to allow humanitarian aid to reach those in need but the moment that time expired the attacks resumed.

While Israel has said the three-hour ceasefire would be a daily occurrence they have also said their strikes against Hamas would continue as long as the Palestinian militants launched rockets into southern Israel.

There has been an international call for a ceasefire between both Israel and Hamas and on Wednesday French President Nicolas Sarkozy said that a proposal had been accepted by Israel and the Palestinian Authority but there was no word on how it was received by Hamas.

Hamas has said there would be no ceasefire until Israel lifted a blockade of Gaza but they did say the proposal showed “positive signs.”
