Hamas says it has approved a ceasefire deal for Gaza put forward by Qatari and Egyptian mediators.
It is not yet known exactly what the group has agreed to - and whether Israel will give its backing to the plan.
The announcement comes as Israel has urged 100,000 Palestinians to leave eastern Rafah ahead of a "limited" military operation.
The Israeli military says it is not a wide-scale evacuation and evacuees will be directed to tent cities in Khan Younis and al-Mawasi.
Earlier, US President Joe Biden "reiterated his clear position on Rafah" in a call with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, the White House says.
