BREAKING: Long-term ceasefire agreed, claims Hamas
A senior Hamas terrorist says that a ceasefire has been reached with Israel to end a seven-week war that has killed more than 2,000 people.
The official said the deal calls for an “open-ended” cease-fire, and an Israeli agreement to ease its blockade of Gaza to allow relief supplies and construction materials into the war-battered territory.
Talks on deeper issues, such as Hamas’ demand to reopen Gaza‘s airport and seaport, would begin in a month.
There was no immediate Israeli comment.
