Israel and militant group Hamas have agreed to end months of bitter clashes with a truce starting on Thursday, Palestinian officials say.
A Hamas official said he was confident all militant groups in Gaza would abide by the agreement, brokered by Egypt.
Israeli officials said they were "looking to see if this is serious".
Earlier at least six Palestinians were reportedly killed in Israeli air strikes in southern Gaza. Israel said it had targeted "terror operatives".
Islamic Jihad said a missile struck a car carrying five of its members near Khan Younis. A sixth man died in a separate strike nearby.

Sometimes I wonder wtf is wrong with the Israelis. Has Hamas ever honored a "truce?" The answer is "no" -- they are ALWAYS the first ones to break truces. This must be the kazillionth "truce" Israel has made with them and Israel never learns. The Klown gives it 48 hours before Hamas launches more rockets into Israel -- or -- maybe they're out of rockets for now.
UPDATE:
JERUSALEM - Palestinian militants on Tuesday fired three homemade rockets into southern Israel, the first such attack since a cease-fire between Israel and Gaza militants took effect last week. More here:
So - 48 hours (since my post) would have been the 19th but they made it all the way to the 24th. 4 EXTRA DAYS -- WOW.
Yes -- they deserve a state.
