Breaking News: Can the Gaza Cease-Fire Talks be Salvaged?
The fragile cease-fire between Israel and Palestinian militants in Gaza is on the brink of collapse, as violence erupts again and diplomatic efforts falter. In this special report, DW News brings you the latest updates and analysis on the situation.
Latest Developments:
- Palestinian militants have fired dozens of rockets into Israel, prompting Israeli airstrikes in response.
- The Egyptian-brokered ceasefire, which went into effect on Friday, has been repeatedly breached, with both sides accusing each other of violating the agreement.
- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to continue military operations in Gaza until the rockets stop, while Palestinian officials have called for international intervention to stop the "genocide".
Analysis:
DW’s Middle East correspondent, Kersten Knipp, speaks to experts and analysts to gauge the prospects for salvaging the ceasefire.
"We’re seeing a perfect storm of escalation," says Dr. Khalil Shikaki, a Palestinian political scientist. "The Palestinians feel they’re being targeted with no end in sight, while the Israelis are frustrated with the lack of progress in negotiations. It’s a recipe for disaster."
Background:
The latest round of violence began on May 10, when Israeli airstrikes killed several Palestinian militants in Gaza. The escalation has resulted in the deaths of over 200 Palestinians, including many civilians, and the destruction of thousands of homes.
International Response:
The international community has been increasingly critical of Israel’s actions, with many countries calling for restraint and a return to the negotiating table.
"The situation in Gaza is unsustainable and unacceptable," said UN Secretary-General António Guterres. "We urge all parties to respect the ceasefire and work towards a durable solution."
