With a temporary cease-fire in Gaza set to expire at the end of Wednesday, Israeli and Palestinian officials are expected to participate in indirect talks in Cairo aimed at agreeing on a more lasting end to hostilities.

The three-day truce is due to expire just after midnight local time (5 p.m. ET).

Egypt is pushing the Israelis and Palestinians to extend the cease-fire past its current deadline, a senior Egyptian government official told CNN on Wednesday.
