Gaza still a war zone nearly a year after ceasefire, analyst says

Jaser AbuMousa describes blocked reconstruction, mass displacement, and ongoing Israeli strikes despite the October 2025 truce.

What to know

  • Nearly a year after the October 2025 ceasefire, Gaza remains devastated: 81% of infrastructure damaged or destroyed, over 300,000 housing units completely demolished, with 1,300+ Palestinians killed since the truce began.
  • Israel now controls 70% of Gaza territory, confining two million people to 30% of the strip; reconstruction is blocked by restrictions on construction materials and equipment.
  • Expectations for rebuilding collapsed after Israel made Hamas disarmament a precondition for fulfilling other ceasefire commitments; ongoing Israeli military strikes undermine stability despite the Board of Peace's recent criticism.
  • Daily life oscillates between signs of normalcy—reopened restaurants, weddings—and survival in ruins, with residents choosing to live in destroyed houses rather than inadequate tents that offer no protection from weather or disease.
