Israel and Hamas are living in a ceasefire that looks nothing like peace. One month after President Trump declared the war “over,” Gaza is still being hit by airstrikes, Israeli troops are digging in deeper, and the ambitious 20-point plan meant to reshape the territory has stalled at its very first step. Half of Gaza is now under Israeli military control, the other half is ruled by Hamas, and two million Palestinians remain trapped in a landscape of rubble, hunger, and uncertainty as winter approaches. What began as a pledge to usher in a “new era of peace” has instead exposed how fragile the agreement is—and how far the region still is from a real resolution.
