NEGOTIATIONS for a truce in the Gaza Strip have broken down for the nth time, plunging the Palestinian enclave deeper into a humanitarian quagmire.
The US and Israel pulled out of the talks, accusing Hamas of reneging on a deal for the release of the remaining hostages it is holding.The militant group brought back to Gaza 251 hostages after launching murderous cross-border raids on Oct. 7, 2023.In retaliation, Israel mounted a vicious offensive that has killed close to 60,000 Palestinians, most of them women and children.After a series of prisoner-hostage exchanges, only 49 Hamas captives are left, 27 of whom have died.
It has become more scarce since May, when Israel accused international relief agencies of channeling aid to Hamas and barred them from delivering and distributing supplies in Gaza.The task was taken over by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation , which has set up distribution sites that are guarded by Israeli troops.The UN considers the GHF’s delivery system to be inadequate and dangerous.
