Gaza ceasefire hopes dimmed as both Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu and U.S. President Trump declared negotiations with Hamas had failed. Their remarks came during escalating violence and growing hunger in the war-torn enclave.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and U.S. President Donald Trump have ruled out further negotiations with Hamas, stating the militant group has no real interest in peace.
Netanyahu revealed Israel is now exploring other strategies to recover hostages and dismantle Hamas rule, as starvation spreads and millions are left homeless in Gaza.
The collapse of ceasefire talks—despite brief progress in Qatar—was marked by the withdrawal of both Israeli and U.S. delegations.
While Hamas claimed its proposals were constructive, Israel and U.S. officials blamed the group for the breakdown. Mediators Qatar and Egypt vowed to continue efforts.
Meanwhile, France recognized an independent Palestinian state, urging a ceasefire alongside Britain and Germany. Trump dismissed French President Macron’s move, saying, “That statement doesn’t carry weight.”
As fighting continues, international agencies warn that Gaza faces mass hunger. Though Israel has resumed aid with air drops, Hamas called this symbolic and demanded open corridors for truck deliveries.
Gaza officials report nine new starvation deaths, with dozens more in recent weeks. The UN blames Israeli restrictions for limiting aid delivery.
