Yahoo: Israel army lifts restrictions, cease-fire reached with Gaza
JERUSALEM (AP) — The Israeli military lifted protective restrictions on residents in southern Israel on Monday, while Gaza’s ruling Hamas militant group reported a cease-fire deal had been reached to end the deadliest fighting between the two sides since a 2014 war.
23 people were reportedly killed in Gaza and four in Israel.
PM Netanyahu: "The campaign is not over and it demands patience and sagacity. We are prepared to continue. The goal has been – and remains – ensuring quiet and security for the residents of the south. I send condolences to the families and best wishes for recovery to the wounded.
