In its statement, Hamas said its top leader, Ismail Haniyeh, had informed Qatar's prime minister and Egypt's intelligence minister "of the Hamas movement's approval of their proposal regarding the cease-fire agreement."

It is not immediately clear what the proposal entails, nor what Israel's position is. An Israeli official told local TV that the Israeli government was "checking which formula Hamas has agreed to."

If Hamas takes a deal, Israel won't. Because it means the deal isn't completely lopsided.

Israel only agrees to "deals" they make
