US says Israel accepted a cease-fire deal — and warns Hamas may not get another chance to say 'yes'

• Antony Blinken said Hamas might be running out of chances for a cease-fire.
• The US secretary of state said Israel had agreed to a cease-fire deal on Monday.
• Now it's on Hamas to accept it, Blinken said.

The US's top diplomat, Antony Blinken, warned that the current cease-fire proposal may be Hamas' last chance to end the 10-month war with Israel.

The US secretary of state, who is on yet another trip to the Middle East amid the conflict, told reporters on Monday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had agreed to a new "bridging proposal" for a cease-fire deal.
