Hamas may have agreed to a ceasefire - but is Netanyahu ready to negotiate?
Tuesday, 19 August 2025 () There is a sizeable gap between the ceasefire deal that Hamas has agreed to, and the demands laid down by the Israeli government.
Israel’s military is grappling with a severe troop crisis, with up to 12,000 soldiers missing from the ranks amid exhaustion, trauma, and refusals to serve in Gaza. Commanders admitted to a 7,500-soldier shortfall, with plans to recruit Jews from abroad and even African asylum seekers. Haredi draft...
After Hamas accepted new ceasefire terms to release half of the hostages, Israel has shifted conditions, demanding the release of all 50 remaining captives. The move risks derailing a Qatar- and Egypt-brokered truce. Netanyahu insists war will only end if Hamas disarms, Gaza is demilitarized, and Israeli security control is secured. With over 62,000 killed and Gaza on the brink of famine, Trump’s call for the “full destruction of Hamas” fuels fears of a trilateral conflict involving the U.S., Israel, and Hamas.

A latest Gaza ceasefire proposal approved by Hamas is "almost identical" to that put forward by US special envoy Steve Witkoff, a spokesperson for Qatar's.. Sky News
Hamas has agreed to a 60-day ceasefire proposal mediated by Egypt and Qatar, with U.S. support, in a bid to halt escalating violence in Gaza. The plan includes the return of half the hostages taken since October 7 and the release of a number of Palestinian prisoners by Israel. While Hamas has confirmed its approval, the Israeli government has yet to respond, and tensions remain high as Netanyahu had earlier approved plans to seize Gaza City. Protests have erupted in Israel, and Gaza residents continue to flee in fear of a renewed offensive. Is this ceasefire a path to lasting peace or a temporary pause in a volatile war? Watch the full update to understand the stakes.
