Wednesday, October 15, 2025-The cease-fire meant to halt months of bloodshed between Israel and Hamas is already under strain, as both sides accuse each other of violating its terms.
Israel claims militants launched fresh rocket attacks near the border, while Hamas counters that Israeli drones and gunfire never stopped. The uneasy calm that followed last week’s agreement is now cracking under mutual distrust.
Reactions across the world show fatigue and frustration. Humanitarian agencies warn that renewed clashes could erase fragile progress in delivering food and medical aid.
Western diplomats urge restraint but admit privately that political pressure at home limits their leverage. On Arab streets, skepticism grows that any truce negotiated under current conditions can last.
The exchange of blame threatens to derail prospects for long-term peace and reconstruction in Gaza. If this cease-fire collapses, another wave of suffering looms just ahead.
