Gaza ceasefire can be reached but may take more time, Israeli officials say

ISRAEL, JUL 8 – The proposed 60-day ceasefire includes phased hostage releases, Israeli troop withdrawals, and increased humanitarian aid, aiming to ease Gaza's crisis amid ongoing indirect talks mediated by the U.S.

  • Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met U.S. President Donald Trump on July 7 at the White House to advance Gaza ceasefire talks and discuss Iran.
  • The ongoing conflict began on October 7, 2023, when Hamas militants attacked Israel, killed around 1,200 Israelis, and took 251 hostages into Gaza.
  • Israeli and Hamas representatives have held indirect ceasefire talks in Doha since July 6, focusing on a proposed 60-day truce that includes phased hostage releases and Israeli troop withdrawals.
  • Trump said talks to end the war are 'going along very well,' but Israeli officials note significant political obstacles, notably Netanyahu's far-right coalition opposing a full ceasefire.
  • Although a ceasefire could temporarily halt hostilities and allow negotiations, the extent of devastation in Gaza and entrenched demands suggest lasting peace remains uncertain.
