Israel is ready to discuss a humanitarian pause in the fighting in the Gaza Strip.
However, the Israeli authorities are still not considering the possibility of a ceasefire.
The American publication reports this, citing a source.
What Israel Offers
According to the publication, today an Israeli representative said that the country wants to discuss the possibility of declaring a humanitarian pause for several hours.
Ceasefire still not on the table – said in the publication.
Earlier, the US State Department said that Washington is against a ceasefire in Gaza, since a respite will allow fighters of the Palestinian Hamas movement to regain strength and continue to attack Israel.
At the same time, the American Foreign Ministry announced the appropriateness of gumpauses for the delivery of humanitarian aid and the departure of refugees.
The American edition of The New York Times previously reported that the Lebanese Hezbollah movement would intervene in the conflict if Hamas was significantly weakened.
