Israel has continued military operations in Gaza despite a US-backed effort to move the ceasefire into its next phase. The escalation followed US President Donald Trump’s announcement of what he called a “historic agreement” intended to advance the truce.
The proposed roadmap has not taken effect because Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu rejected the US-backed ceasefire plan. That decision has left the next stage of the agreement stalled while military action continues.
The dispute centers on how the ceasefire should proceed and whether the proposed framework can be implemented. With no breakthrough reported, strikes have intensified and the gap between the US initiative and Israel’s position remains unresolved.
