In violation of the “ceasefire” that came into effect on Oct 10, 2025, Israel has:
- Continued military strikes against Gazans
- Killed more than 1000 people (around 4 a day).
- Increased its area of occupation (entirely cleansed of Gazans) from 48% to 60%.
- Announced that it intends to increase this to 70%.
The “Gaza Peace Plan” has stalled.
Even the most optimistic among us would not deny that progress in the “Gaza Peace Plan”, which is what has been put in place during the ceasefire, has stalled.
- The so-called “Board of Peace”, an opaque construction of questionable purpose, is languishing in obscurity.
- There is little sign of any transitional authority that might advocate for Gazans.
- Many of crucial points of the agreeement continue to be violated, and nobody in the Western establishment is calling them out.
- Meanwhile, Israel is applying a campaign of maximum suffering by:
- Severely restricting humanitarian aid.
- Preventing recovery of health systems.
- Repeatedly uprooting already-displaced Gazans.
- Enforcing systemic shortages of food, water, fuel, and sanitation.
The mere idea of a Gaza Peace Plan has given Western governments and media the ability to misrepresent the situation in Gaza as mostly-solved. Dramatic news from other parts of the world captures our attention and “compassion fatigue” prevents audiences from looking past the mainstream framing to find out the truth about Gaza.
Israel has achieved many of its main objectives and shows no interest in further progress in the Peace Plan. As for its genocidal intentions, it merely has to temper it to a slow grinding pace, and the world can pretend to not see.

What can you do?
The first step is to be on the side of truth. History judges not only those who commit atrocities, but also those who help conceal them.
Reject comforting myths. Look beyond the prescribed media narrative. Seek the Truth. Speak out. Help others confront the painful reality behind the myth.
Beyond that, see our Act Page for suggestions.
