Leaders of France, Egypt, Jordan warn Israel against offensive in the city of Rafah
Israel pulled its forces out of the southern Gaza Strip on Sunday “to prepare for future missions”, the country’s defence minister said.
Egyptian state-linked media reported that talks in Cairo aimed at brokering a truce had made "significant progress".

A senior Hamas official meanwhile told AFP that "we cannot speak of concrete progress so far".
