Ceasefire

A Sigh Of Relief, But Breathing Easy Is Impossible In A Circumference Of US Empire

April 10, 2026 Anthony Karefa Rogers-Wright, Black Agenda Report. , , , , ,
Yesterday evening, the world collectively breathed a sigh of relief as it was reported that the Islamic Republic of Iran and the United States reached a deal for a two-week cessation of hostilities to allow for negotiations that will ultimately lead to a longer peace deal between the two nations and the zionist ethnostate of Israel. Yet Iranians and the entire world are not breathing easy as it’s understood that the U.S. and Israel have lost credibility as it pertains to keeping their word and adhering to parameters of a ceasefire agreement. 

Europe Welcomes Ceasefire Announcement In Iran

April 9, 2026 Ana Vracar, People's Dispatch. , , ,
After a prolonged series of communications that failed to mention the United States and Israel as participants – let alone initiators – of the illegal war on Iran, European leaders today welcomed the announcement of a ceasefire. While these statements did mention the US, they remained silent on Israel’s role in the attacks, acknowledging its involvement only indirectly: “We call upon all sides to implement the ceasefire, including in Lebanon,” a joint statement by several European Prime Ministers and EU officials reads. The Israeli occupation, of course, continued to escalate its assault on Lebanon despite this kind appeal.

‘Historic Victory’: Iran Says US Forced To Accept Its Negotiation Framework

April 8, 2026 Middle East Eye. , , ,
Iran's Supreme National Security Council said on Wednesday that the country had achieved a "historic" victory and forced the United States to accept the framework of a 10-point proposal ahead of planned negotiations. In a statement, the council said the proposal includes guarantees of non-aggression, continued Iranian control over the Strait of Hormuz, sanctions relief, the withdrawal of US forces from the region, and reparations. It added that negotiations, set to begin on Friday in Pakistani capital Islamabad, will focus on finalising details but "do not mean the end of the war".

Iran Not Seeking Ceasefire, Aggressors Must Learn

March 10, 2026 Al Mayadeen English. , , , , ,
Iran is not seeking a ceasefire amid the ongoing war, instead, it intends to impose a decisive response on its adversaries, Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf said on Tuesday. In a post on X, Ghalibaf wrote: “We are certainly not seeking a ceasefire," adding, “We believe that the aggressors must be taught a harsh lesson so they never dare attack Iran again.” Ghalibaf also accused "Israel" of relying on recurring cycles of conflict to maintain its dominance, stating, “The Israeli entity believes that its survival lies in continuing the cycle of ‘war–negotiation–ceasefire and then war again’ in order to consolidate its hegemony, but Iran will break this cycle."

The US Announced ‘Phase 2’ Of The Gaza Ceasefire

January 16, 2026 Qassam Muaddi, Mondoweiss. , , , ,
Phase 2 of the tenuous ceasefire between Israel and Hamas has started, and it will involve “the full demilitarization and reconstruction of Gaza,” U.S. Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff declared on Sunday. Israel has opposed advancing to a second phase, which would include a larger Israeli withdrawal from the Strip, the start of reconstruction, and the transfer of control over Gaza’s institutions from Hamas to a provisional authority of Palestinian technocrats This technocratic committee, tasked with day-to-day governance, will answer to a U.S.-mandated “Board of Peace” as part of Trump’s 20-point “peace plan.”

Israeli Army Expands Outposts In Gaza; Laying Groundwork For Permanent Occupation

December 22, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , ,
The Israeli military is preparing to establish a permanent presence inside the Gaza Strip, new satellite imagery released by Forensic Architecture has confirmed. According to Forensic Architecture’s research, Israel is consolidating control over 50 percent of the strip – continuously demolishing civilian infrastructure to make room for new outposts. Since the ceasefire, the Israeli army has built at least 13 new outposts – mainly east of the so-called “Yellow Line,” the perimeter to which Tel Aviv withdrew its forces as part of the agreement.

Israel’s Expanding ‘Yellow Line’ Swallows Gaza Districts

When Ahmed Hamed returned to his home in Gaza City after the ceasefire, it stood about 1.5km west of the so-called “Yellow Line” enforced by Israel. Two months on, that distance has shrunk to roughly 200 metres. “Before the war ended, our home was in a dangerous area, and it was difficult for us to return,” the 31-year-old Palestinian journalist told Middle East Eye. “We waited two weeks after the ceasefire to make sure it was safe.” Eventually, the family went back to their house near the Shujaiya neighbourhood in eastern Gaza City. Almost immediately, the sounds of war returned with them.

Gazans Feel Little Relief From Israeli Strangulation Since Ceasefire

December 6, 2025 Tareq S. Hajjaj, Mondoweiss. , , , ,
It’s been nearly two months since the ceasefire was reached in Gaza. Hopes were high among the 2 million Palestinians in the besieged Strip that not only would the Israeli bombings stop, but that everything they had been deprived of for the past two years – food, clean water, adequate medicine and healthcare – would flood into Gaza to ease their struggles. The hopes of regaining a fragment of the life they knew before the war, have dissipated, as the reality of a “new genocide” sets in. Though some aid has come into Gaza, and people have tried to restore some semblance of normalcy, the reality in Gaza is far from peacetime.

For Supporting Trump’s Gaza Plan, Arab States Cash In

November 25, 2025 Abed Abou Shhadeh, Middle East Eye. , , , , ,
The ceasefire agreement that came into effect last month has revealed the contours of Israel-Arab relations, and the political leverage Arab states hold in Washington. It also underscored that Israel could not have achieved its military gains in the region, nor carried out the genocide in Gaza, without cooperation and political cover from several Arab states. Since the outset, these states have sought to extract political and strategic advantages from the devastation. The Saudi crown prince's White House visit last week further reflected this strategy.

After The Ceasefire: What Next For Global Solidarity With Palestine?

November 24, 2025 Shatha Abdulsamad, Mondoweiss. , , , ,
Despite Hamas and Israel agreeing on a ceasefire on October 10, the genocide in the Gaza Strip has only slowed down. United States President Donald Trump’s “peace plan” does not address the Israeli structural violence that still exists against Palestinians, and there has been no real movement or action from governments to hold the architects of the genocide accountable for their crimes. Although the daily massacres – averaging about 100 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip – have lessened, the mechanisms of oppression are still firmly in place: the territory remains blockaded, and Israeli aerial and artillery attacks persist with minimal resistance from world governments.

US To Build Internment-Style Camps In Israeli-Controlled Gaza

November 12, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , , , , ,
US President Donald Trump's administration is advancing a controversial plan to build what US officials called “Alternate Safe Communities” for displaced Palestinians inside the Israeli-controlled areas in Gaza that make up half of the strip, The Atlantic reported on 10 November. According to The Atlantic, the initiative envisions a string of US-backed settlements for Palestinians screened and approved by Israel’s domestic intelligence service. Anyone – or their relatives – found to be affiliated with or supportive of Hamas would be barred from entry, effectively separating them from the majority still living under Hamas administration on the western side of what Israeli troops now call the “yellow line.”

Israel’s Repeated Ceasefire Violations Are Part Of Its Strategy

October 30, 2025 Tareq S. Hajjaj, Mondoweiss. , , , ,
The Israeli army announced that a soldier in Rafah had been killed by gunfire on Tuesday. Before the source of the gunfire could be confirmed, Netanyahu blamed it on Hamas, and gave the order for the army to launch “powerful strikes” on Gaza. The resumption of the Israeli bombing campaign killed over 100 people, 46 of whom were children, and 20 of whom were women, according to the Gaza Ministry of Health on Wednesday. Hamas released a statement saying it had nothing to do with the incident and that it remained fully committed to the ceasefire agreement in all areas. Nevertheless, the Israeli army carried out the attacks across several locations in Gaza. An army statement later said that Israeli forces had struck “30 terrorists holding command positions” in the Strip.

The Rise Of Global Boycotts Against Israel’s Genocide In Gaza

October 28, 2025 Alia Chughtai, Al Jazeera. , , ,
Protests to end Israel’s mistreatment of Palestinians are getting louder and larger. Seeing the livestreamed genocide Israel perpetrated in Gaza has had an effect globally, with the call to boycott Israel at an all-time high. Quiet boycotts, which started in supermarkets nearly two decades ago, have turned into widely used apps that help millions make choices about purchases. Campus protests and encampments in the US and Canada have led some major education institutions to cut ties with Israeli counterparts, while investments into Israel have dipped, and some of the world’s largest economies have recognised Palestine as a state.

Veterans Condemn Israel’s Blatant Violations Of Gaza Ceasefire

October 27, 2025 Veterans for Peace, Popular Resistance. , , , ,
Veterans For Peace unequivocally condemns Israel’s gross violations of the ceasefire in Gaza. We demand that the Trump administration pressure Israel to abide by the ceasefire agreement: to end all attacks on Gazans; and to allow abundant aid (at least 600 trucks a day) into Gaza. We call upon the President and U.S. Congress to cut off all military aid to Israel.     We further call on U.S. political leaders to secure the freedom of Mohammed Ibrahim, a 16-year-old U.S. citizen who was kidnapped from his bed while visiting family in the West Bank last February, and whom Israel continues to hold in a notorious torture prison.   Israel’s gross violations of the Gaza ceasefire agreement, including aerial bombing and artillery barrages, have killed over 100 Palestinians – including many children – in the first two-and-a-half weeks of the “ceasefire,” causing fear and panic among Gaza’s civilian population.

Four Militias Backed By Israel, Arab States Plan ‘Project New Gaza’

October 27, 2025 News Desk, The Cradle. , , , , ,
Israel is backing four militias as part of a project to oust Hamas and create a “new Gaza,” according to a report released by Sky News on 25 October. These armed groups – which throughout the war have been engaged in hostilities against Hamas on behalf of Israel – are currently operating along the Yellow Line of Washington’s ceasefire map, in Israeli-held territory. "We have an official project - me, [Yasser] Abu Shabab, [Rami] Khalas, and [Ashraf] al Mansi," militia leader Hossam al-Astal, a Palestinian Bedouin with links to the Palestinian Authority (PA), told Sky News. "We are all for ‘The New Gaza.’ Soon we will achieve full control of the Gaza Strip and will gather under one umbrella,” he added. According to footage which was geolocated by Sky News, the headquarters of Astal’s militia in south Gaza’s Khan Yunis lies on a military road less than 700 meters from an Israeli army outpost.
