The tense ceasefire and hostage release negotiations between Israel and Hamas have reached a critical juncture, as Israeli air and ground operations continue to target the Gaza Strip. On Thursday, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's office announced that Israel is reviewing Hamas' revised proposal for peace.

The previous proposal had been deemed insufficient, not even reaching the Israeli government after being rejected by mediators. Mounting pressure from both local and international communities underscores the urgent need for a resolution, as humanitarian conditions in Gaza worsen and widespread hunger shocks the world.

Despite some claims of progress, Israeli media reports indicate substantive divisions persist, particularly regarding Israeli military positions during a potential ceasefire. The humanitarian crisis further complicates negotiations, as dozens have starved to death, including children, and aid delivery remains fraught with challenges.
