Hamas has stated that the US-proposed Gaza ceasefire plan, recently approved by Israel, fails to meet its core demands, including a full end to the war. While Hamas continues to review the proposal, the plan reportedly includes a 60-day truce, the release of Israeli hostages, and Palestinian prisoners. Israeli PM Netanyahu has signaled approval, but Hamas remains non-committal. Meanwhile, Israel issued its largest evacuation order since March, affecting nearly half a million residents in Gaza. UN officials warn of forced starvation and escalating humanitarian crises. Talks in Doha show little progress as military actions appear set to intensify in Gaza. (PC: BBC)
