Nearly four months after the ceasefire agreement in Gaza, significant violations by Israeli forces continue to emerge, highlighting a stark divergence from the expected norms of such a ceasefire. The article outlines that, according to international practices, a ceasefire should encompass a complete halt to hostilities across land, air, and sea, which includes bombing, ground incursions, and targeted killings.

The situation on the ground reveals that Israeli military actions occur almost daily, undermining the very essence of the ceasefire agreement that was meant to ensure peace and stability in the region. Ahmed Jarrar's report delves into the details of these international standards that are critical for any ceasefire, discussing how the ongoing violations exacerbate tensions and hinder the peace process.

Moreover, these violations not only endanger the lives of civilians in Gaza but also feed into the broader conflict between Israel and Palestine. The continued military operations signify a lack of commitment to the peace process and raise questions about the accountability of Israel under international law. The article emphasizes the urgent need for adherence to established ceasefire criteria to foster a more sustainable resolution to the ongoing conflict.
