"Egypt has received very strong indicators on the acceptance by all parties of a 72-hour ceasefire starting at 5 a.m. GMT," one Egyptian source said.

"More delegations are due to arrive in Cairo soon to engage in the Egyptian initiative, which is mainly aimed at an immediate halt to the bloodshed through a comprehensive truce agreement."

"We hope this will secure a permanent ceasefire and restore stability," Egypt's Foreing Ministry said said in a statement

How will this one go? Israel go do whatever they want again?

Actually,a few days ago,the ceasefire was broken within hours of it's commencement by hundreds of Hamas rockets flying into Israel. I have no idea what they were thinking. But with another country at the helm,hopefully they will stop at least now.

This could turn out to be quite a milestone in their road to peace.

Didn't they just have a truce and it went to shit?

There are crazies just like in Ukraine who want the war to carry on so they can finish their fight with their enemy, just like in Ukraine, someone is stirring up trouble and it's easy to see.
