Since the outbreak of this round of Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Israel and Hamas have held multiple rounds of negotiations under the mediation of the United States, Egypt and Qatar. In July this year, Hamas agreed to a ceasefire agreement based on the Security Council resolution; but afterwards, Israel put forward some new conditions. A new round of Gaza ceasefire negotiations was held in Doha, the capital of Qatar, on the 15th, suspended on the 16th, and resumed in Cairo, the capital of Egypt, on the 24th;So far, the prospects for a ceasefire agreement remain slim.。

Several Israeli media outlets revealed thatThe issue of control over the "Philadelphia Corridor", a 14-kilometer-long strip of land at the border between the Gaza Strip and Egypt, is the crux of the current ceasefire negotiations.The United States suggested that Israel continue to maintain troops in the "Philadelphia Corridor" in "some form", but this is unacceptable to Hamas.

Hamas believes that the new ceasefire agreement is no different from the conditions proposed by Israel, especially the rejection of a permanent ceasefire and a complete withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, and the insistence on continuing to occupy the "Philadelphia Corridor" and other places. In addition, Israel has also put forward new conditions on the exchange of detained persons, all of which have hindered the conclusion of relevant agreements.

Israel reiterated that it adheres to the principle that Israel should control the "Philadelphia Corridor" to prevent Hamas from rearming. On May 29 this year, the Israeli army claimed that it had achieved "full operational control" of the "Philadelphia Corridor."

There are reports that the US has proposed international supervision of the area, but Israel has pointed out that reports that it is considering stationing a multinational force along the 'Philadelphia Corridor' are "incorrect."

Pakistani media: US bias towards Israel complicates ceasefire negotiations

The Palestinian newspaper Al-Quds recently published an article saying that at present, the United States insists on supporting the conditions and demands imposed by Israel, which has increased the complexity of ceasefire negotiations. Some analysts are pessimistic about the prospects of Cairo negotiations. The reason is that the United States, out of its own interests and domestic political considerations, has long favored Israel on the Palestinian-Israeli issue, causing the negative impact of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict to spread faster, the tension in the Middle East escalated, and the prospects for ceasefire negotiations in Gaza are still uncertain.
