That didn't last long [View all]

The Financial Times post reports Israeli strikes in Gaza killing several Palestinians, occurring just one day after a U.S.-brokered ceasefire began on October 13, 2025, following a two-year war that killed nearly 68,000 Palestinians and 2,000 Israelis, highlighting the fragility of the truce.
Israeli military claims the strikes targeted individuals who crossed a designated "yellow line" boundary, a detail supported by Al Jazeera's report of the army opening fire on a group approaching soldiers, suggesting a possible escalation despite the ceasefire's intent to enable hostage-prisoner exchanges.
Historical context from Noam Chomsky's 2014 analysis and France's 2024 accusation of 52 ceasefire violations by Israel indicate a pattern of repeated breaches, raising questions about the effectiveness of current diplomatic efforts, though no peer-reviewed studies directly address the 2025 ceasefire's specifics yet.
