Hamas agrees to a ceasefire proposal; Israel official says doesn't meet terms

The Israeli official said the proposal that Hamas had accepted was a "softened" version of an Egyptian proposal, which included "far-reaching" conclusions that Israel could not accept. "This would appear to be a ruse intended to make Israel look like the side refusing a deal," said the official. It came on the same day Israel ordered people in one part of the city of Rafah to evacuate before a promised offensive there.
