Hamas: Israeli 'Violations' Halt Gaza Truce Phase 2

  • Hamas states the Gaza ceasefire's second phase cannot proceed due to alleged Israeli "violations" and urges mediators to intervene.
  • Hamas accuses Israel of not reopening the Rafah crossing or increasing aid as stipulated in the truce agreement.
  • Israel plans to reopen the Allenby crossing for Gaza-bound aid trucks, closed since September.
  • A dispute exists over Israel's "Yellow Line" withdrawal, which Hamas views as a violation of the ceasefire.
  • The second phase of the truce involves disarming Hamas, further Israeli withdrawal, and an international stabilization force, with Israel demanding the return of the last captive's body.

Why It Matters: Gaza ceasefire faces collapse, impacting regional stability and humanitarian aid.
