Ceasefire in limbo

Israel have refused to move to the second phase of the ceasefire deal and have instead asked for the first phase to be extended. Hamas has refused this request and has insisted that Israel moves to phase two as originally agreed.

In retaliation, Israel has now said they will block all humanitarian aid into Gaza. What happens next? Both for the hostages who need releasing ASAP, and for the ordinary Palestinians including children whose suffering will only increase by this blockage.

Netanyahu needs war to retain power. The pattern seems to be sign an agreement and never honour it. Israel is currently still violating the ceasefire with Lebanon and have failed to withdraw fully. They've also announced that they will not be leaving parts of Syria.

Why haven't they withdrawn from Lebanon yet? It has been ages since the ceasefire agreement stated they should.

There was also an air strike in the north of Gaza with dead and injured reported. The IDF have given no reason for the air strike.
