Gaza Ceasefire: U.S. Efforts for Peace Amid Fragility

U.S. Vice President JD Vance arrived in Israel to focus on stabilizing the fragile Gaza ceasefire, as Washington seeks to spur both Israel and Hamas toward further concessions in negotiations. Despite an agreed ceasefire, both sides have reported breaches, complicating hostilities at the Gaza border.

President Donald Trump's plan demands complex steps, including Hamas' disarmament and progress towards a Palestinian state. Vance's visit follows key diplomatic discussions and aims to propel the ceasefire into its crucial second phase.

Meanwhile, Hamas continues talks in Cairo, as Egyptian and Qatari mediators arrive in Israel for further negotiations. Vance is expected to visit joint military forces aiding Gaza's stability, while humanitarian aid flows cautiously into war-torn areas.
