American and Egyptian officials may announced the signing of a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas tonight, according to reports.
It is thought the final wording of an agreement is being worked on, and German officials are working to mediate between the two conflicting groups.
Earlier on Tuesday two Palestinian children were killed in an explosion thought to have been caused by a Hamas rocket in the Annazla neighbourhood north of Gaza City.
The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights said: “Relatives and neighbours say they didn’t hear an Israeli drone or an F16 jet flying over-head before the strike.
