Deadly Violations: Ongoing Attacks on Palestinians
Despite the ceasefire, Israeli forces have continued their assaults on Palestinians in Gaza. At least 25 Palestinians have been killed since the ceasefire began. These attacks represent a direct breach of the agreement and undermine efforts to maintain stability. The ongoing violence raises fears that Israel is using the ceasefire as a tactical pause rather than a genuine step toward de-escalation.Blocking Humanitarian Aid: A Manufactured Crisis
Israel has continued to systematically obstruct aid deliveries, worsening the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. Under the ceasefire’s humanitarian protocol, Israel was required to allow:- 600 aid trucks per day, including 300 designated for northern Gaza.
- 50 fuel trucks daily to restore essential services.
- Equipment for clearing rubble and rescuing victims.
- Tents, shelters, and temporary housing units for displaced families.
- Funds to support reconstruction efforts. However, Israel has failed to meet these commitments. As of February 2, only 9,630 aid trucks had entered Gaza—far below the agreed amount. Fuel shortages have left hospitals, bakeries, and water facilities struggling to function, with civil defense teams completely deprived of fuel, preventing them from clearing debris and recovering bodies. The continued blockade of aid directly violates the ceasefire and exacerbates Gaza’s humanitarian crisis.
