Is a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas in the formulation?
Arab officials said on Motzaei Shabbos to the Lebanese TV channel Al - Miadin, that a ceasefire is underway. According to the report, whose reliability is questionable, negotiations are conducted with Israel, Hamas and the United States, under the supervision of Egypt, Qatar and Turkey. According to the report, Israel sent to Cairo tonight a "senior figure" to sign the final agreement - if it will be formulated. Diplomatic sources in Jerusalem, however, strongly denied the reports about a visit of a senior official in Egypt. However, a senior defense official acknowledged that "conversations and overtures are conducted with international factors mediating the possibility of a cease-fire."
The report comes after a particularly tumultuous Shabbos for residents of Israel, with the opening of the fourth day of Operation Amud Anan, when a few minutes after Shabbos came in, a siren was sounded throughout Jerusalem and the surroundings. The rocket fell in an open area in Gush Etzion. There were no casualties or damage.
Throughout Shabbos there was massive fire at Israel's southern communities. A direct hit was in recorded in a house in Ashdod. Four people were moderately injured and 7 suffered from shock, but by the grace of Heaven there were no casualties.

On Shabbos morning three soldiers sustained light to moderate injuries in the Eshkol Regional Council area. They were evacuated to Soroka Hospital in Beersheba.
