At a joint news conference Saturday with Turkey, Egyptian President Mohamed Mursi said there are “some indications” a ceasefire could be reached soon between Israel and Gaza, but that he did “not yet have firm guarantees.” Israel’s missile-defense system blocked a rocket fired at Tel Aviv Saturday, and pounded Gaza, where the death toll rose to 45. The Israeli army has authorized the call-up of as many as 75,000 reservists.
