Ceasefire negotiations between Israel and Hamas in Qatar have broken down, with both the US and Israel recalling their negotiating teams.
US envoy Steve Witkoff accused Hamas of not acting in good faith and showing little desire to reach a ceasefire, while Israel is reviewing Hamas's latest response to the truce proposal. The humanitarian crisis in Gaza continues to worsen, with reports of famine and thousands of aid trucks blocked from entry. Mediators had hoped for a breakthrough, but disagreements over aid distribution, Israeli military withdrawal, and the permanence of a ceasefire remain unresolved.
The US is now considering 'alternative options' as diplomatic efforts stall.
