Gaza Peace Talks Enter Their Second Day on the War’s Anniversary
Indirect peace talks in Egypt focus on a U.S.-proposed plan to end the war and include a prisoner exchange as Gaza faces ongoing humanitarian crisis with over 2 million people at risk, UN says.
- On Tuesday, Israel marked the second anniversary as indirect talks resumed at Sharm el-Sheikh, focusing on a peace plan proposed by U.S. President Donald Trump last week.
- The war began on Oct. 7, 2023 when Hamas-led militants launched a surprise assault, killing around 1,200 and abducting 251.
- The two-year onslaught has rendered the majority of Gaza's 2.2 million residents homeless, and Gaza's health ministry says 67,160 Palestinians have been killed.
- After several hours of talks Monday, Egyptian officials said parties agreed on most first-phase terms, including hostage release and ceasefire, with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner present.
- Meanwhile, Israeli strikes continued amid mediation efforts, while aid surges aim to help more than 2 million Palestinians facing hunger and Global Sumud Flotilla activists were detained.
