Sami Shaban says his relatives were among 11 killed when Israeli tank fire struck their minibus a week after the U.S.-brokered ceasefire took effect.

Hamas and Fatah, the Palestinian political party that controls the Palestinian Authority (PA), have held talks in Egypt about next steps for the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. The meeting was part of broader talks to build consensus about the ceasefire among various Palestinian factions.

Hamas has deployed hundreds of police and clashed with armed groups in Gaza in what the militant group says is an attempt to restore law and order in areas where Israeli troops have withdrawn for the U.

Israel said it carried out air strikes on Gaza Oct. 19 after its troops were attacked, sending the ceasefire into uncertainty.

Israel has accused Hamas of attacking Israeli forces in southern Gaza with the military carrying out airstrikes in the city of Rafah, the first major test of the US-brokered ceasefire.

Hamas is weakened but still influential and is unlikely to disarm. How powerful is Hamas and what other violent non-state actors pose a threat to the ceasefire?

The group is betting it can assert itself without triggering a return to war, but the president’s plan calls for the militants’ capitulation.

The Gaza ceasefire stands on the brink of collapse as President Donald Trump issues a chilling ultimatum to Hamas — warning that any violation of the truce will trigger a “fast, furious, and brutal” response.
