Ceasefire impasse: Israel stops entry of goods, supplies into Gaza

Israel have suspended the entry of all goods and supplies into Gaza after Palestinian militant group Hamas refused a US-backed plan for a temporary ceasefire over the period of Ramadan and Passover.

This comes after the first phase of a truce agreement between Israel and Hamas ended the day before.

Earlier on Sunday, Israeli Prime Minister’s office announced it would adopt a US-backed plan for a temporary ceasefire over the period of Ramadan and Passover.

The proposal put forward by U.S. President Donald Trump’s Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff, would cover Ramadan, due to end late March, and Passover, lasting through mid-April.

“With the conclusion of the 1st stage of the hostages deal and in light of Hamas’s refusal to accept the Witkoff framework for the continuation of the talks, to which Israel agreed, PM Netanyahu decided: as of this morning, entry of all goods & supplies to the Gaza Strip be halted,” the Prime Minister’s office said.

It added that Israel “will not allow a ceasefire without the release of our hostages.”

Recall that the fight between Isreal and Hamas started in October 2023 and several casualties have been recorded.
