A recent ceasefire proposal for Gaza backed by the United States has been rejected by Hamas. A senior Hamas official stated that the plan did not meet the terror group’s main demands, including a permanent end to the ongoing war.
The U.S. plan, which Israel reportedly supports, proposes:
- A 60-day ceasefire
- The release of 28 Israeli hostages, both alive and dead, in the first week
- In exchange, the release of 125 Palestinian prisoners serving life sentences
- The dignified transfer of 180 Palestinian casualties
This diplomatic push aims to halt continuous fighting that broke out after a ceasefire collapsed in mid-March. While Israel has agreed to the terms, Hamas remains skeptical, prolonging uncertainty in the region.
The U.S. and international actors continue efforts to facilitate aid into Gaza, which has been severely restricted amid the conflict. The situation remains tense with escalating violence and growing humanitarian concerns.
Observers await further developments as negotiations remain fragile, with conflicting parties reluctant to fully commit.
