Ceasefire negotiations between Israel and Hamas have broken down, with both the US and Israel recalling their negotiating teams from talks in Qatar.
US officials, including President Trump's envoy Steve Witkoff, accused Hamas of acting in bad faith and lacking coordination, while Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu said alternative options are now being considered to secure the release of hostages. The collapse comes amid a worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where aid groups warn of mass starvation due to ongoing blockades and limited food aid. Hamas has expressed surprise at the US and Israeli withdrawals and claims it remains open to further negotiations.
The breakdown in talks raises uncertainty about the prospects for peace and the fate of civilians and hostages in Gaza.
