A year after the return of the last living hostages, Israel and the US say the Gaza ceasefire remains in place but tensions persist. US officials, including Jared Kushner and the Red Cross, marked the anniversary claiming 'real progress' on demilitarizing Hamas, though building a Hamas-free administration remains difficult. Reports note nearly two-thirds of Gaza is now under Israeli military control, with Netanyahu also vowing continued Israeli control over the West Bank. On the ground, Israel's 'Yellow Line' demarcation has continued advancing westward in Gaza, pushing displaced families in areas like Shujayea into renewed danger with nowhere else to go. Separately, Israeli strikes killed a Palestinian in Gaza and wounded journalists in the occupied West Bank, underscoring that violence continues despite the ceasefire framework.
