The USA is making significant efforts to broker a ceasefire in the ongoing Gaza war, aiming to secure the release of hostages held by Hamas.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has emphasized that this could be the last chance for a ceasefire and the return of hostages, amidst rising tensions and threats of further attacks.
The situation remains precarious as both Israeli and Palestinian militant groups engage in heightened conflict, complicating peace negotiations.
