Gaza Groups Agree To Stop Firing at Israel



Gaza Groups Agree To Stop Firing at Israel

This may spell an end to hostilities if the groups hold to their word, and Israel decides to play ball on the same token.

Only time can really tell whether or not this will work itself out.
GAZA CITY, Gaza Strip -- Militant groups in the Gaza Strip have agreed to stop firing missiles at Israel at midnight Saturday, senior Palestinian officials said.

The unilateral cease-fire is aimed at ending an Israeli offensive in the Gaza Strip that began June 28, three days after militants raided an Israeli army post, killing two soldiers and capturing a third, 19-year-old Cpl. Gilad Shalit, the officials said on condition of anonymity because the agreement was reached at a closed meeting.
