The “Yellow Line” splitting Gaza in two is meant to be temporary according to Trump’s “peace” plan. However, the fact that those terms were intentionally left vague suggests that the partition of Gaza was the real goal all along.

Here’s Israel’s strategy to continue the war on Gaza: find a pretext, no matter how baseless, use it to kill dozens of civilians and fighters, stop fire and claim you’re honoring the ceasefire. Then do it again.

Gaza is now trapped in the limbo of the uncertainty surrounding the Trump plan. The U.S. might prevent Netanyahu from resuming Israel’s genocide, but unless Palestinians gain full control over Gaza’s future, it’s just a slower form of killing. 

The Gaza Ministry of Health published photos of the mutilated bodies of Palestinian prisoners. Most of them showed clear signs of torture — hands and feet bound, blindfolded, bodies showing marks of tank tracks, burns, fractures, and deep wounds.

As world leaders celebrate the release of Israeli captives, over 9,000 Palestinian prisoners still face torture, hunger, and isolation behind bars. Half of them are held by Israel without charge or trial.

Beloved journalist Saleh Aljafarawi was murdered as chaos spreads across Gaza following the ceasefire, and Hamas cracks down on Israel-backed armed clans and militias that looted aid during the war. Here’s how these stories are connected.

Hebrew-language Israeli media reports say there is a “secret clause” buried in the Gaza ceasefire agreement that would allow Israel to resume the war. Palestinians worry this is the pretext Netanyahu needs to get out of completing the deal.

The ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas includes halting military actions, an Israeli withdrawal, increased humanitarian aid, and a prisoner swap. But it doesn’t guarantee an end to the war or that Israel won’t resume the genocide.

Gaza erupted in celebration as a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Hamas was reached on Thursday. But while there has been an outpouring of joy over the prospect of an end to the genocide, many are skeptical that it’s truly over.

Many in Gaza believe that Trump’s “peace” plan is a ploy to get the Israeli captives released and then resume the genocide. But despite the deep skepticism, desperation to end the war is outweighing everything else.
