According to Gaza\u2019s Health Ministry, Israeli fire since the start of the ceasefire has killed at least 377 people.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Hamas has said the ceasefire cannot move forward while Israel continues its violations of the agreement, with Gaza authorities saying the truce has been breached at least 738 times since taking effect in October.<\/p>\n Husam Badran, a Hamas official, called on mediators to increase pressure on Israel to fully implement its existing commitments.<\/p>\n list of 4 items<\/span>end of list<\/span><\/section>\n \u201cThe next phase cannot begin as long as the [Israeli] occupation continues its violations of the agreement and evades its commitments,\u201d Badran said.<\/p>\n \u201cHamas has asked the mediators to pressure the occupation to complete the implementation of the first phase,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n The ceasefire, which came into effect on October 10, focused on the exchange of captives held in Gaza for Palestinian prisoners held by Israel, and a partial withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza.<\/p>\n But details of the next phase, including Gaza\u2019s future governance, the potential deployment of an international stabilisation force, and the establishment of what has been termed a \u201cboard of peace\u201d, remain unresolved.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, anger continues to rise among Palestinians and the international community as Israeli attacks persist. According to Gaza\u2019s Ministry of Health, Israeli attacks since the start of the ceasefire have killed at least 377 people and wounded 987.<\/p>\n A United States official told Al Jazeera Arabic that negotiations on the next phase of the ceasefire are advancing, but key obstacles still need to be overcome.<\/p>\n The official said Washington expects the first deployment of an international stabilisation force to begin in early 2026.<\/p>\n Talks are currently focused on which countries would contribute to such a force, how it would be commanded and what its rules of engagement would be.<\/p>\n It comes as former United Kingdom Prime Minister Tony Blair has reportedly been dropped by the \u201cboard of peace\u201d, a panel envisioned by the US to oversee redevelopment in Gaza.<\/p>\n The official said the US-backed ceasefire plan, endorsed by the United Nations Security Council, clearly stipulates Israel\u2019s complete withdrawal from Gaza and Hamas\u2019s disarmament.<\/p>\n They added that discussions are under way to form a police force drawn from the local population in Gaza.<\/p>\n The US is also aware of the increasing demands for humanitarian access, the official said, and is working to remove barriers to aid delivery.<\/p>\n Meanwhile, UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric responded to a claim by Israeli Lieutenant General Eyal Zamir that the so-called \u201cyellow line\u201d, currently marking Israeli-held territory inside Gaza, constitutes a \u201cnew border\u201d.<\/p>\n Israeli forces have remained in about 58 percent of Gaza since a partial withdrawal to the yellow line. Under the ceasefire plan, Israeli forces are meant to withdraw fully from the territory, although there is no timeframe for a withdrawal in the agreement.<\/p>\n The Israeli military has launched an air strike and artillery attacks on areas of Khan Younis still under its control. There have been no reports of casualties.<\/p>\n In northern Gaza, the Israeli army has continued building demolitions in Beit Lahiya.<\/p>\n \u201cThese actions constitute a blatant violation of international humanitarian law and a deliberate undermining of the essence of the ceasefire and the provisions of its attached humanitarian protocol,\u201d Gaza authorities said in a statement.<\/p>\n Israel\u2019s genocidal war against the Palestinian people in Gaza has killed at least 70,366 Palestinians and wounded 171,064 since October 2023, according to Gaza health authorities.<\/p>\n At least of 1,139 people were killed during the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led attack on southern Israel, according to Israeli statistics, and more than 200 others were seized as captives.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n According to Gaza\u2019s Health Ministry, Israeli fire since the start of the ceasefire has killed at least 377 people. Hamas has said the ceasefire cannot move forward while Israel continues its violations of the agreement, with Gaza authorities saying the truce has been breached at least 738 times since taking effect in October.
