| Gaza Active Conflict: Day 35 |
| 2014-08-11 |
| Monday, August 11, the 35th day of Operation Protective Edge. A new 72-hour ceasefire came into effect at midnight Sunday-Monday. Israel indicated it would send its negotiators back to Cairo for talks on a longer-term arrangement if the ceasefire was still holding on Monday morning. However, the sides are far, far apart, with Israel determined not to reward Hamas for using force against it, and conditioning rehabilitation and eased access for Gaza on the demilitarizing of the Strip; Hamas is adamant that it will not give up its arms. |
