The Islamic Jihad terrorist organization has agreed to a ceasefire with Israel, multiple Arab media outlets reported Sunday evening.

The ceasefire is set to go into effect at 11:30 p.m., according to the reports.

The Lebanon-based Al-Mayadeen televisions channel cited two sources who said that Islamic Jihad has accepted an Egyptian proposal for a ceasefire with Israel.

Muhammad al-Hindi, the chief of Islamic Jihad’s political department, said that the organization had agreed to the “formula” put forth by Egypt.

"A formula for the Egyptian declaration of the truce agreement was reached, including Egypt's commitment to work for the release of the two prisoners, al-Saadi and Awawda."
