Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has granted approval for new negotiations regarding a ceasefire in Gaza, in response to a ruling by the International Court of Justice (ICJ) that ordered Israel to ensure the prompt delivery of humanitarian aid to the Palestinian territory. Despite the United Nations Security Council’s binding resolution demanding an immediate cessation of hostilities, fighting has persisted, including in the vicinity of hospitals. Furthermore, the conflict has led to regional repercussions, with Israel asserting that it has eliminated a Hezbollah rocket commander in Lebanon and conducted airstrikes in Syria resulting in the deaths of multiple Hezbollah fighters.
According to Netanyahu’s office, discussions on a Gaza ceasefire and the release of hostages will take place in Doha and Cairo in the coming days. The ICJ’s ruling underscores the severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza, marked by the looming threat of famine and the collapse of the healthcare system. Israeli military operations have specifically targeted medical facilities, while humanitarian organizations emphasize the urgent requirement for supplies. The conflict has strained relations between Israel and the United States, with the US expressing concerns about civilian casualties and proposing the involvement of the Palestinian Authority in governing Gaza.
