TV station in Egypt says nation’s officials have successfully brokered pause in fighting that has led to deaths of 21 in Gaza
Israel and Palestinian militant groups in the blockaded Gaza Strip have reportedly negotiated a ceasefire after a bloody episode of violence that left 21 people in Gaza dead and brought daily life in Tel Aviv to a standstill.
Extra News TV, an Egyptian state-run station that has close ties to the security agencies, said on Wednesday evening that Egyptian officials – who frequently mediate in the conflict – had successfully brokered a pause in the fighting.
