Donald Trump believes that this ceasefire will hold a “Board of Peace.” Trump strongly believed that this ceasefire would be the answer to solve their problems, according to the BBC,
An agreement that was in the ceasefire was that Israel and Hamas would return the hostages back to Gaza; in return Gaza released 1000+ Israeli prisoners back to Israel. But even after the ceasefire was signed, the violence did not stop. According to “The Elders” article about the ceasefire, “Over 350 Palestinians, including many children, have been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza since the ceasefire came into effect on 10 October.” This shows that even with the help from other countries, the conflict between the country and Palestinian territory will continue.
Both sides have tested the waters with this new ceasefire that was signed two months ago. Gaza and Israel have been accusing each other of starting things that are against the agreement. As reported by CNN, in their article they state, “The Israeli military says three of its soldiers were killed by Hamas militants in that same period. And human rights groups have accused Israel of failing to uphold its commitments regarding the flow of humanitarian aid and blocking essential supplies, like tents, from entering the strip.”
The Trump administration is now working on the second phase of the ceasefire, which is to start cleaning up and rebuilding the fallen homes in Gaza.
