People feel they’re running out of time now with no clear plan of what’s going to happen.
The Israeli insistence on extending the phase one of the ceasefire, rather than moving forward to the agreed-upon second stage indicates Israel is interested in continuing the war.
The more we talk to people, the more we realize how worried they are about the coming days and the future of the ceasefire agreement and its ability to hold for the coming phases. It’s an indication that Gaza is in a state of war right now.
There have been more than 100 people killed over the last 48 days, most while trying to return to their destroyed homes. There’s also the Israeli refusal to withdraw from the Philadelphi Corridor.
These are major elements of the ceasefire. People are still haunted by the nightmarish scenes of devastation and bloodshed that went on for 15 months. They haven’t woken up from it yet.
