GAZA CONFLICT UPDATES: Comprehensive ceasefire not true

The official who leaked reports of a "comprehensive ceasefire" agreement now seems to rowing back slightly. Reuters reports:

An Israeli official said on Thursday that Israeli senior representatives at talks in Cairo had accepted an Egyptian proposal for a comprehensive Gaza ceasefire starting on Friday, but Israel's leaders still had to approve the deal.


The official, who earlier said that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's decision-making security cabinet had agreed to the truce, later told Reuters the forum had not yet voted and was still examining its details.


In Gaza, there was no immediate comment from Hamas or other Palestinian groups on whether they had accepted a permanent ceasefire to end warfare now in its 10th day.

Also Rocket sirens in Israel have marked the end of the acclaimed humanitarian truce, and the bombardment of Gaza has also resumed. Exactly at the end moment of the ceasefire that never really happened, there is a siren in Ashkelon region.
