Hamas halts hostage release, citing ceasefire violations, as conflict with Israel intensifies

Hamas has postponed the release of hostages, accusing Israel of violating the ceasefire agreement. The group claims Israel continued military actions in Gaza and blocked humanitarian aid, breaching the truce terms. Israel denies the allegations, calling Hamas move a pressure tactic. International mediators, including Egypt, Qatar, and the U.S., are pushing for a resolution to prevent further escalation. With uncertainty growing, the situation remains fragile. Will the ceasefire hold, or will hostilities resume?
