Israel’s 24-hour deadline to Hamas has expired, marking a critical turning point in the fragile ceasefire agreement brokered by the U.S., Egypt and Qatar. According to Israeli officials, the IDF began limited operations beyond the designated “Yellow Line” after Hamas failed to withdraw its remaining fighters before the 8 p.m. deadline. U.S. and regional mediators had relayed final warnings to Hamas through Cairo and Doha, emphasizing that any continued presence beyond the demarcated zone would be considered a violation of the ceasefire pact.
