The United States and Israel have withdrawn their negotiating teams from ceasefire talks in Qatar, citing Hamas' lack of willingness to reach a deal.
US special envoy Steve Witkoff accused Hamas of not acting in good faith and showing little desire to end the conflict or release hostages. The breakdown in negotiations comes amid worsening humanitarian conditions in Gaza, with thousands of aid trucks unable to enter the territory. Both the US and Israel are now considering alternative strategies to secure the release of hostages and address the crisis.
The stalled talks highlight deep divisions between the parties and raise concerns about the prospects for peace in the region.
