ceasefire

UAE President and US President discussed in a phone call efforts for reaching a ceasefire in Gaza.

Ukraine and Russia reached US-backed agreements on maritime safety and energy infrastructure, seen as a step toward a broader ceasefire.

Egypt is one place where Gazans can move on land. Not only is there a border between Egypt and Gaza, but Egypt controlled Gaza from 1948 to 1967 and thus has a historic role in Gaza.

Retired Supreme Court president Aharon Barak fears that Israel is headed toward civil war.

Defense Minister Israel Katz has made it clear that the IDF will continue its operations until “Hamas understands that the rules of the game have changed.”

Netanyahu made it clear that this was just the beginning. "We will continue fighting so that Gaza will no longer pose a threat to Israel.

The US blames Hamas for breaking the ceasefire in Gaza, backs Israel’s response, and condemns Hamas’s use of civilian sites, says acting UN envoy.

Hamas has claimed that Israel broke the ceasefire, but it is Hamas that sought to stall since March 1, when the first phase ended.

The question now is whether Israel will manage to reach an agreement with Hamas before it is too late and what price it will be willing to pay.

Military sources stated that Hamas leadership in Gaza remains in hiding, “and therefore believes it is immune, prolonging the situation.”
