Hamas-Israel ‘Agreement’ On Reducing Gaza Tensions:

A newspaper affiliated to Hamas has reported that a deal has been reached with Israel to reduce tension in the Gaza Strip, as Palestinians prepare to mark the first anniversary of weekly protests along the border fence with Israel.
Gaza’s fence with Israel has for the past year been the scene of mass protests and major bloodshed in which more than 260 Palestinians were killed by Israeli sniper fire and nearly 7,000 shot and wounded, according to Gaza’s health ministry.
For months, and through repeated military escalations, Egyptian mediators have been trying to broker a truce.
But on the eve of the anniversary of the so-called Great March of Return protests, the organising committee, which is calling for a “million man march” on Saturday, issued instructions to the demonstrators: stay back from Israeli guns, follow commands of organisers on the ground, make no aggressive actions, and don’t burn tyres – a sign that an Egyptian-brokered deal was in the works.
