Delegationer fra Israel og Det Palæstinensiske Selvstyre mødtes Juledag til fornyede fredsforhandlinger, og Israel har varslet endnu flere løsladelser af arabiske fanger, idet man håber at få frigivet den israelske soldat, som holdes fangen i Gaza. Den israelske viceforsvarsminister Matan Vilnai udtaler, at han regner med at kunne løslade Marwan Barghouthi, som er en af Fatahs højtstående ledere, som afsoner en livslang straf for terrorisme. Samtidig med fredsforhandlingerne fortsætter terrororganisationen Hamas med at sende bomber indover grænsen fra Gaza, hvilket natten til mandag fik Israel til at reagere. Ved det israelske modangreb dræbtes to militante arabere i Gaza. De dræbte tilhørte den islamistiske bevægelse, Islamisk Jihad.
