JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli media say the country's Security Cabinet has unanimously rejected a U.S. proposal for a temporary pause in Israel-Hamas fighting.

WEST BRIDGEWATER, Mass. (AP) — Board members of the beleaguered Market Basket grocery store chain say they will "seriously consider" a proposal from its fired chief executive to buy the company as the chain faces a workers' revolt that has paralyzed the stores.

Three hours after the digging began, a piece of white sackcloth was seen in the soil. The city of Slavyansk in eastern Ukraine -- a former rebel stronghold back under Ukrainian military control -- had found its first mass grave. "This is a terrible tragedy," said Anton Gerashchenko, a Ukrainian interior ministry adviser presiding at a brief ceremony for townspeople before the exhumation began. "In this mass grave are the bodies of four Protestant parishioners, innocents who were tortured and killed by the rebels," he said.
