GAZA, (The Palestine Information Centre)Member of the Hamas political bureau, Izzat al-Resheq, denied the media reports of a possible hour-truce or plans to open the Rafah border crossing.
Al-Resheq urged journalists to rely on reliable official sources, particularly the Government Action Committee in Gaza.
