Terrifying spectre hangs over ambiguous Gaza ceasefire deal
Thursday, 16 January 2025 () In a region bereft of hope, the prospect of a ceasefire represents a flicker of possibility - but make no mistake, there's still a great deal of uncertainty about the deal.
Officials from key mediators in a ceasefire deal between Hamas and Israel say that a landmark agreement has been reached to pause the 15-month war in the Gaza Strip. Israel has said the deal is in its final stages.
Under the deal reached Wednesday, 33 hostages are set to be released over the next six weeks in exchange for hundreds of Palestinians imprisoned by Israel, according to reports.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has raised concerns over the Israel-Hamas ceasefire agreement, claiming that Hamas has violated key terms of the deal. The agreement, brokered with mediation by the United States, Egypt, and Qatar, was intended to halt hostilities, facilitate prisoner exchanges, and allow humanitarian aid into Gaza. However, Netanyahu's office accused Hamas of creating a "last-minute crisis" by reneging on commitments, including vetoing the release of Palestinian prisoners convicted of murder.

As cease-fire negotiations continue in Qatar, Israeli airstrikes across Gaza have killed at least 62 Palestinians, including children and journalists. Strikes targeted a family home in Deir al-Balah, a school shelter in Gaza City, and refugee camps in Al-Nuseirat and Shati. The Israeli military confirmed hitting over 50 targets in the last 24 hours. Evacuation orders have been issued for Jabalia, intensifying the humanitarian crisis as displaced residents struggle with severe shortages of essential supplies. The violence raises concerns over the cease-fire’s viability.
