US Ends Gaza Ceasefire Talks, Blames Hamas | JQJO

The US has ended Gaza ceasefire talks, citing Hamas's lack of commitment to a truce. Special envoy Steve Witkoff stated Hamas isn't acting in good faith, leading to the US bringing its negotiating team home. Israel also recalled its negotiators. The talks, focused on a 60-day ceasefire involving hostage releases and aid, stalled over disagreements on Israeli troop withdrawal and Hamas disarmament. The situation in Gaza continues to worsen, with widespread hunger and malnutrition, prompting international criticism of Israel's blockade.
