Key Facts

  • Ceasefire took effect 10 October 2025
  • Over 1,400 killed since (Gaza health ministry)
  • Israel controls about 60% of Gaza (Al Jazeera)
  • Rebuilding needs: $71.4 bn (EU/UN)

Territory and disarmament

Al Jazeera reported that Israel now controls about 60% of the Strip, more than the roughly half agreed in the plan. Hamas has not disarmed, and Israel has not begun to withdraw, AP said. The planned international stabilisation force has not deployed.

Reconstruction stalled

The EU and UN estimate recovery needs at $71.4 billion over a decade, HRW said. Almost nothing has been rebuilt, AP reported. Gaza’s two million people remain in limbo. The truce was based on a 20-point plan brokered by the US and Arab allies, AP reported.

What comes next

The Board of Peace has proposed a six-month recovery programme, HRW said. It cannot begin until funding and access are secured.

Why It Matters: Without progress on governance and rebuilding, the truce risks unravelling.
