A week after a US-brokered ceasefire, Gaza saw its deadliest day since the truce began. Israeli strikes killed at least 45 Palestinians after two Israeli soldiers died in an attack blamed on Hamas. US pressure helped stop a full collapse of the deal, with aid deliveries resuming Monday. President Trump’s envoys Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff returned to the region to save the peace plan. Israel warned Hamas fighters to stay behind a new “Yellow Line” marking control zones. Both sides accused each other of breaking the deal, raising fears the fragile ceasefire could soon fail.
