One year on, Gaza ceasefire exists ‘in name only,’ aid groups say amid near-daily Israeli strikes

Although a year has passed since the ceasefire in Gaza, Israeli attacks and the humanitarian crisis continue, while international organizations emphasize that the ceasefire remains on paper only.

Status of the One-Year Ceasefire

U.N. Secretary-General António Guterres stated that security could not be established in the region despite a year having passed since the declared ceasefire.

It was reported that the current situation is insufficient to deliver adequate humanitarian aid and provide a reliable path to peace.

Field Observations and Casualties

Following an Israeli airstrike carried out in the Sabra neighborhood of Gaza City, Palestinians tried to gather their belongings from destroyed buildings.

The devastating impact of the attacks and destruction on civilians in the region continues almost every day.

Difficulties Faced by Civilians

Years of ongoing conflicts and displacements continue to negatively affect children and families in the region.

Civilians such as eight-year-old Mohammed al-Shahrit, who had to live in a tent by the coast after his home in Rafah was destroyed, are struggling with great hardships.
