Israel FM says no changes to Egypt peace deal

Israel's foreign minister said that his country will not agree to reevaluate its peace deal with Egypt amid growing insecurity along the states' shared border.

Avigdor Lieberman said "there is no chance Israel will agree to any kind of change" in the historic 1979 peace agreement with Egypt. He spoke to Israel Radio on Sunday.

Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi and his Muslim Brotherhood movement have repeatedly called for changes in troop limits in the increasingly lawless Sinai Peninsula. Many Egyptians contend the limits infringe upon national sovereignty.

In a bid to halt the rising attacks by militants, Israel and Egypt have agreed to temporarily waive limits. But violence persists. In the latest incident, three gunmen and an Israeli soldier were killed in a shootout along the border on Friday.
