"Ceasefire Hopes Dashed as Hamas Rejects Proposal, Biden Urges Action Before Ramadan"
TL;DR Summary
US President Joe Biden hopes for a ceasefire deal in the Israel-Gaza War by the start of Ramadan, as pressure mounts for intervention to alleviate the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Tense negotiations include a proposed 40-day pause in military operations and increased aid flow, while calls for action intensified after a deadly incident at an aid delivery. The US plans to airdrop aid into Gaza, but this has been criticized as insufficient by aid groups, who advocate for open crossings and land/sea convoys. Other countries, including Jordan, have also provided aid through air drops.
