Unresolved issues — mainly over the exchange of the remains of hostages and prisoners — threaten to destabilize the fragile agreement.

The fragile cease-fire between Israel and Hamas is under renewed strain as both sides accuse the other of violating the U.S.-brokered agreement. Israel continues to press for the return of the bodies of hostages still held in Gaza, while Hamas has accused the Israeli military of killing more than 20 civilians since the truce took effect last week.

NORC poll shows Trump’s approval rising after the Gaza ceasefire but lagging on key domestic issues like the economy, immigration, and health care.

The release of the hostages is a testament to President Trump’s “nonconventional leadership style,” according to Vice President JD Vance.

Reuters spoke to 13 current and former Israeli officials and experts who acknowledged the humanitarian toll of the conflict was a major reputational cost for the country.

The United States is sending about 200 troops to Israel to help support and monitor the ceasefire deal in Gaza as part of a team that includes partner nations, nongovernmental organizations and private-sector players.

The US special envoy will receive the George S. Wise Medal for his courage and compassion in the service of peace and the people of Israel.
