Vance optimistic but not ‘100 percent certain’ Gaza ceasefire holds

Vice President JD Vance highlighted challenges in disarming Hamas and rebuilding Gaza while noting over 530 aid trucks have entered, feeding nearly 500,000 people, World Food Program said.

  • On Tuesday, U.S. Vice President JD Vance said the Gaza ceasefire is going better than expected but acknowledged challenges like disarming Hamas and rebuilding Gaza, urging patience and flexibility.
  • The visit highlighted lingering questions about long-term plans for Gaza, including who will govern and when an international security force featuring Turkey, Indonesia, and Britain will deploy.
  • Since the ceasefire began, 15 hostages' remains have been returned, two more were handed over Tuesday, and Gaza's Health Ministry reports some returned Palestinian bodies showed signs of torture.
  • The World Food Program sent more than 530 trucks into Gaza in 10 days, reinstated 26 distribution points, yet staple prices surged with flour selling for over $70 Sunday, and banks remain largely inoperable.
  • Vance framed U.S. expectations for enforcement and diplomacy, saying Hamas will be `obliterated` if it resists and around 200 U.S. troops will not enter Gaza before his Thursday meetings.
