JERUSALEM, Feb 11 (Reuters) - Prime Minister Ehud Olmert gave a non-committal response on Sunday to a Palestinian unity government deal, saying Israel was examining details of the accord.

"Israel neither rejects nor accepts the agreements," Olmert said in broadcast remarks at the start of the weekly cabinet meeting. "At this stage, we, like the international community are learning what was exactly accomplished and what was said."
