   Please be aware: war is not over.

   The pace of Israel bombing in Israel's war against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip of Palestine has increased since the ceasefire agreement was reached, without taking effect until Sunday.
   'Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif says “the pace of bombing has increased dramatically in recent hours”, describing it as “terrifying”' reported the Guardian ½ hour ago.

   Israel bombed the tents of displaced people (internal refugees) at Deir al-Balah, central Gaza Strip of Palestine,
   according to Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif with this video from two hours ago.

     @Gurre Likewise.
     I refused to believe or to mention these negotiations until it was announced that they had agreed, by the host. Then also by Hamas, Biden, etc.
     Now everyone has announced that the agreement has been reached except Netanyahu, who still says it may happen pending details that both Biden's and Trump's reps say had already been finalized.

     I still believe Netanyahu does not want peace but continued war expansion, simply because peace increases personal risk of being deposed and facing trial at The Hague.

     I've been a cynic on all the cease fires since October7, and even I thought this one would probably work. Netanyahu really is a genocidal war criminal who doesn't care about anyone but himself (and possibly personal friends).

     As of right now it seems the Gaza ceasefire agreement may fall apart within a day of it being declared as reached, before taking effect,
     as indicated by a report by jpost quoting Netanyahu's office of course blaming Hamas, but without any published response from the accused and lacking any statement of having even attempted to get one, so disqualified from being considered adequate journalistic standard (so will not link) but still worth noting.

     Netanyahu canceled Israel's vote on formally accepting the Gaza ceasefire proposal.
     Details unfolding.
