Six months after an October 2025 ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, Gaza remains unstable with escalating violations. Gaza's Government Media Office documented over 2,073 violations including airstrikes and incursions. More than 700 Palestinians died since the ceasefire began. Promised humanitarian aid and Israeli troop withdrawals have not materialized fully. The agreement lacks effective enforcement mechanisms, transforming the war into a lower-intensity continuous pattern rather than genuine peace.
