Ceasefire negotiations between Israel, Hamas, and the United States have broken down, with both the US and Israel withdrawing their negotiating teams and accusing Hamas of not acting in good faith.

The breakdown comes amid worsening humanitarian conditions in Gaza, including widespread starvation and food scarcity.
