The US-led ceasefire in Gaza, implemented after two years of intense conflict, has officially ended. Negotiations between Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Hamas resulted in a temporary cessation of hostilities. While observers note the agreement, significant political and ideological differences between the parties remain. Neither side readily agreed to the truce, prompting mediation efforts by Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey. The stability of the ceasefire hinges on the continued commitment of all involved to prevent a resumption of the conflict.
