Summary
Hamas has rejected Israel’s recent truce proposal, demanding a comprehensive agreement to end the ongoing war, amid Israeli airstrikes that have killed at least 40 people in Gaza. The proposal included a 45-day ceasefire, the release of hostages, and the disarming of Hamas, which the group refuses, seeking instead a full prisoner exchange and reconstruction efforts. As the humanitarian crisis worsens, with over half a million displaced and severe shortages of essentials, Hamas accused Israel of committing war crimes by blocking aid to Gaza’s population.
