'They lie to us': One year on, Gazans don't believe in ceasefire

One year after Israel and the United States declared a ceasefire in Gaza, many residents remain displaced and living in camps, enduring constant Israeli airstrikes and limited access to basic necessities. Despite the ceasefire, Israel maintains control over 70% of Gaza and continues to bomb the territory. Displaced individuals, like Fatima Awkal and Ahmed Jonaid, tell of ongoing suffering, with little change on the ground.

Medical professionals, such as Ahmed Shawan, declare the ceasefire ineffective, stating that it remains only on paper. The political transition from Hamas rule envisioned under the ceasefire plan has yet to materialise, with the 51-year-old displaced man lamenting the ongoing displacement and dire living conditions.
