Källa: Hamastopp reser till Egypten för samtal om paus
Hamas-ledaren Ismail Haniyeh ska besöka Egypten i dag för samtal om en ny stridspaus, uppger en anonym källa nära den palestinska terrorgruppen för AFP. Även BBC har uppgifter om besöket.
Det skulle möjliggöra för ytterligare frisläppanden av personer som är gisslan hos Hamas och palestinier som hålls i israeliska fängelser.
Enligt källan riktar samtalen i Egypten bland annat in sig på att få fram nödhjälp.
Förra gången parterna enades om en stridspaus var Egypten delaktigt i Qatars medling, skriver BBC.
