The White House announced Thursday that Israel has agreed to a new ceasefire proposal submitted to Hamas, as the humanitarian crisis in Gaza worsens. Hamas confirmed it is “studying it responsibly.” The conflict, which reignited in March, has killed over 54,000 people, mostly civilians. Despite limited aid entry, starvation looms for one in five Gazans. On Thursday, 54 more were killed, including 23 in an airstrike on Al-Bureij. Jordan accused Israel of using “systematic starvation tactics,” while the last hospital in northern Gaza reportedly faces forced evacuation. Talks, led by President Trump’s envoy, are ongoing with hopes for a truce. (PC: Bloomberg)
