Incendiary?

ECM flares? You mean flares? ECM is Electronic Counter Measures. A flare can't be ECM. But if they were regular flares they would be falling much faster. These are parachute flares, designed to hang over a battlefield for troops to see.

Gone out now.

drone are still roaming the sky...i guess a bomb will fall soon

The men talking ont he live feed are saying that they are pushing in, then they said Fu451ing #!!!

You can hear ariel drones and bombardment once again.

Looks like the ceasefire hasn't been agreed to after all:

1730: Israeli government spokesman Mark Regev tells the BBC: "There is an arrangement that will bring about a ceasefire. We are not there yet. The diplomatic ball is still in play."

There's something being fired near the RT camera. It sounds like rockets. There's an intermittent "woosh woosh".

Hey what happened to Harry fears feed? Some may not have liked him but he was the best source for the first 3 days.

What happened?

Starts at 2200 GMT apparently. I wonder if they're just using up all they can til then. Bit like an end of year budget.

Looks like a large area of Gaza really did go dark just now.

Yeah it could be. There were three or four it sounded like. They had that rocket motor sound to them.

The Harry Fear feed? It shows he's offline on UStream....

????

Dont know if anyone else has already posted this but the Huff post is reporting

JERUSALEM -- Egypt's president predicted Tuesday that Israel's nearly weeklong offensive in the Gaza Strip would end within hours, as diplomats from across the world raced across the region to negotiate a cease-fire to end relentless Israeli airstrikes and Palestinian rocket attacks.

Full story here

If true it'll end before this day is over... but at the same time a different player entered stage right

Stray bullets fired in battles between Syrian army, rebels hit IDF vehicle in Golan; soldiers do not return fire

that story here
All I can say is it's been business as usual since 1967 for those people

Yeah it is. I have OccupiedAir going, sorry. I had like four going at once, and forgot which one was which. The sound on all of mine has been flaky at best today.

As of five minutes ago, Palestinian and Egyptian officials have said there is NO cease fire agreement in place.

Seems to have gone quiet again. Maybe the flares were just a bluff?

Here is another feed I found, posted on the OccupiedAir stream, called teleport4.
It just changed from a green-night-vision-goggle type visual to something else, not sure what it's streaming now. A lot of conversation like a press area...
