Ceasefire negotiations between Israel, Hamas, and international mediators in Qatar have broken down, with both the United States and Israel recalling their negotiating teams.
US envoy Steve Witkoff accused Hamas of acting in 'bad faith' and showing no real desire to reach a ceasefire, while Israel is reviewing Hamas's latest response. The breakdown comes amid worsening humanitarian conditions in Gaza, with thousands of aid trucks unable to enter the territory. Mediators had hoped for progress, but disagreements over key issues, including control of food aid and the terms of a truce, remain unresolved.
The US has announced it will consider 'alternative options' to secure the release of hostages and end the conflict.
