UPDATE 23.20 The truce proposal in the Gaza Strip accepted by the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas includes three phases and has the objective of a lasting ceasefire, a high-ranking official within the movement, Khalil al-Hayya, said on Al-Jazeera on Monday, reports AFP , taken over by News.ro.
This proposal includes three phases, each lasting 42 days, and provides for a complete withdrawal of Israel from the Gaza Strip, the return home of Palestinian refugees and an exchange of hostages held in the Gaza Strip and detainees from Israel, said Khalil al- Hayya.
The objective of this plan is a “permanent truce”, he specified.
UPDATE 22.31: Israeli leaders have approved a military operation in the Gaza Strip city of Rafah, and Israeli forces are currently striking targets in the area, Israeli officials said Monday, the Associated Press reports.
The move came hours after Hamas announced it had accepted an Egyptian-Qatari ceasefire proposal.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said the proposal was “far from Israel’s essential demands” but would still send negotiators to continue talks on a ceasefire agreement.

UPDATE at 21.06: An Israeli official told Reuters on Monday that a ceasefire had not been agreed in Gaza after Hamas said it had accepted a proposal from Egyptian and Qatari mediators.
According to the Israeli official, the proposal that Hamas accepted is a “tempered” version of an Egyptian proposal, which includes “far-reaching” conclusions that Israel cannot accept.
“This would appear to be a ploy to make Israel look like the party refusing an agreement,” the Israeli official said.
UPDATE 20.15: Hamas announced on Monday that it had accepted an Egyptian-Qatari ceasefire proposal to end the seven-month war with Israel in Gaza.
Israel had no immediate comment on the deal, and details of the proposal have not yet been made public. Egyptian and Hamas officials have said in recent days that the ceasefire will take place in a series of stages during which Hamas will release the hostages it is holding in exchange for the withdrawal of Israeli troops from Gaza.
It is unclear whether the deal will meet Hamas’ key demand to end the war and ensure Israel’s full withdrawal.

In a statement, Hamas said its senior leader, Ismail Haniyeh, made the news in a telephone conversation with Qatar’s prime minister and Egypt’s information minister. After the statement was released, Palestinians erupted in cheers in the tent camps around Rafah, hoping the deal meant an Israeli attack had been averted.
Israel’s closest allies, including the United States, have repeatedly said Israel should not attack Rafah. The impending operation has sparked global alarm over the fate of the estimated 1.4 million Palestinians sheltering there.
Aid agencies have warned that an offensive would worsen the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza and bring a wave of civilian deaths in an Israeli campaign that in nearly seven months has killed 34,000 people, according to figures provided by Hamas, and devastated the territory.
US President Joe Biden spoke with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday and reiterated US concerns about an invasion of Rafah. Biden said a cease-fire with Hamas was the best way to protect the lives of Israeli hostages held in Gaza, a National Security Council spokesman said on condition of anonymity to discuss the call before the release of a official White House statements.

Hamas and the main mediator, Qatar, said the Rafah invasion would derail efforts by international mediators to negotiate a ceasefire. Days earlier, Hamas discussed a US-backed proposal that would have raised the possibility of ending the war and withdrawing Israeli troops in exchange for the release of all hostages held by the group. Israeli officials rejected this compromise, vowing to continue the campaign until Hamas was destroyed.
UPDATE at 15.57: On Monday afternoon, the Israeli air force carried out strikes in the east of the city of Rafah, near the areas where Palestinian civilians were ordered to evacuate, Al-Aqsa, the official channel of Hamas, quoted by Reuters reports.
According to the quoted source, explosions were heard shortly after noon in the east of Rafah city.
During the morning, the Israeli army announced that it had begun to evacuate civilians from Rafah.
Residents were urged by text messages, phone calls and posters in Arabic to join an “extended humanitarian zone” 20 kilometers away.
***
Original news: The evacuations are concentrated towards the outlying neighborhoods of Rafah, from where Palestinians are directed to the nearby tent cities of Khan Younis and Al Muwassi, according to a report on Israeli army radio.
An army statement said posters, text messages, phone calls and media announcements would be used to “encourage the gradual movement of civilians into specified areas”.
Earlier, Israel presented the United States with a plan to evacuate civilians from the city of Rafah, which did not convince Washington.
Israel has announced that there are thousands of Palestinian Islamist fighters in Rafah and that victory is impossible without capturing the city.
But with more than a million displaced Palestinians in Rafah, the prospect of a military operation with a large number of victims worries Western states and neighboring Egypt, notes Reuters.
