Hamas claims it has accepted a cease-fire proposal from Egypt and Qatar on Monday — as the Israeli military prepares to launch an assault on its last stronghold in Rafah.

Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh announced the decision to accept the deal with Qatar’s prime minister and Egypt’s intelligence chief.

Details of the agreement have yet to be revealed.

The news comes after cease-fire talks broke down over the weekend following an attack by the terror group on an Israeli military outpost that killed four soldiers.

Thousands of Palestinians are fleeing parts of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip after Israel announced it planned to begin an assault on Hamas positions there.
