Overview

  • Hamas has formally rejected an Israeli truce proposal, insisting on a complete prisoner exchange, cessation of hostilities, and reconstruction of Gaza.
  • Israeli forces have declared 30% of the Gaza Strip a security zone, displacing approximately 500,000 Palestinians since March 18.
  • Israeli airstrikes on displaced persons' tents have killed at least 25 people, including women and children, according to Palestinian Civil Defense.
  • Israel continues to block humanitarian aid into Gaza, exacerbating severe shortages of food, water, fuel, and medical supplies as the UN warns of a worsening humanitarian crisis.
  • Hostage negotiations remain stalled, with Islamic Jihad recently releasing a video of an Israeli hostage, while Israel vows to intensify military actions.
