The Palestinian delegation said it accepts a Egyptian proposal for a new 72-hour ceasefire with Israel, AP reported Sunday.
"We are here to look for an agreement. We cannot have an agreement without talks, so we accepted an Egyptian proposal to have a ceasefire for 72 hours in order to resume the talks," a member of the Palestinian delegation was quoted as saying.
Earlier today, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu refused to return his delegation to Cairo to hold talks on resolving the conflict in the Gaza Strip until Palestinian militants stop rocket attacks.
"Israel will not negotiate under fire," Netanyahu said.
