"The violence is much reduced. Yet Israeli forces have reportedly killed about 100 Palestinians and wounded hundreds more since the 10 October ceasefire began. Food aid supplies are still heavily restricted. The occupation continues, in Gaza and the West Bank. US officials fear prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his accomplices may renege on the deal, as in the past. Likewise, Hamas elements and rival gangs have kept fighting."
"The terrorist group is not disarming; Israeli forces have not fully withdrawn to the agreed lines. US-framed security, governance and reconstruction proposals remain vague, hypothetical and contentious. The war's root causes, principally the denial of Palestinian sovereignty and statehood, are not addressed. Unless that changes, it will all kick off again, sooner or later. Yet for the sake of argument,"
Violence in Gaza remains reduced but ongoing, with Israeli forces reportedly killing about 100 Palestinians and wounding hundreds since the 10 October ceasefire. Food aid supplies are heavily restricted. Occupation persists in Gaza and the West Bank. US officials fear prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his accomplices may renege on the deal. Hamas elements and rival gangs continue fighting; Hamas is not disarming and Israeli forces have not fully withdrawn to agreed lines. US-framed security, governance and reconstruction proposals remain vague and contentious. The war's root causes, chiefly the denial of Palestinian sovereignty and statehood, remain unaddressed. Accountability and justice for war crimes are necessary to reduce the risk of resumed warfare.
