Hamas has said it will accept a ceasefire deal brokered by Egypt and Qatar.

Teh statement comes as Israel warned residents of a part of the southern Gaza city of Rafah to evacuate ahead of an expected offensive. It’s thought more than one million Gazans are currently in Rafah.

Israel and Hamas have been at war since October when more than 1000 people is Israel were killed and hundreds taken hostage by the armed group.

Hams said the head of its political wing Ismail Haniyeh had spoken to senior officials in Egypt and Qatar to “informed them of the Hamas movement’s approval of their proposal regarding the ceasefire agreement”.

Any ceasefire will be dependent on Israel also agreeing to the pause in fighting.

Hamas’ move will put pressure on Israel not to go ahead with its Rafah offensive.
