Middle East Conflict

President Trump is preparing for his first visit to Israel in his second term after playing a key role in securing a peace agreement that resulted in a ceasefire in Gaza and the return of 48 hostages. Many Israelis credit Trump with finalizing the deal, which has brought a temporary halt to two years of conflict and allowed displaced Palestinians to begin returning home.

Despite the ceasefire, much of Gaza remains in ruins, with many residents returning to find their homes destroyed. The United Nations is planning to increase aid deliveries over the next two months to address urgent needs for food, water, and shelter. However, there are concerns among Palestinians that the violence could resume once the hostages are released.

Para todos los israelíes que hicieron campaña incansablemente para que los rehenes volvieran a casa, el presidente Trump es una especie de héroe. Como sobrina de uno de los rehenes, quiero mucho al presidente Trump porque él es el que realmente selló el trato. Ahora les gustaría mostrar su gratitud en persona, mientras Israel se prepara para la primera elección presidencial. de su segundo mandato. Nos salvó de toda esta situación. Queremos darle las gracias de todo corazón. El presidente Trump llega el lunes, que es también la fecha límite para que Hamás devuelva todos los 48 rehenes. Dos años de guerra han dividido profundamente a los israelíes. Muchos creen que su gobierno dio prioridad a la venganza sobre el rescate de los rehenes. Pero todos ellos están de acuerdo en una cosa, es el presidente Trump quien consiguió que este acuerdo superara la línea. Justo hasta las últimas horas antes de que el alto el fuego entrara en vigor el viernes, Israel continuó bombardeando Gaza. Pero tan pronto como los cañones callaron y las tropas israelíes se retiraron a una línea acordada dentro de del territorio, decenas de miles de palestinos emprendieron el regreso a casa. Casi toda la población de Gaza ha sido desplazada repetidamente en los últimos dos años. Esperan desesperadamente recuperar algo de su vida anterior a la guerra. He oído que mi casa ha sido destruida, dice Rami Hamda, pero espero poder salvarla. algunas de mis pertenencias. Ni siquiera puedes encontrar una tienda donde quedarte en este momento. Para algunos, el hogar era irreconocible. No queda nada de la vida de Umm Hamra Al-Madun antes de huir de los combates. No encontré mi casa, mis vecinos, nada, dijo. Todo estaba destruido. No queda vida, y la gente que murió, se ha ido para siempre. Entre los escombros y las ruinas, el alto el fuego aún se mantiene. Pero muchos palestinos temen que, una vez liberados los rehenes, se reanuden los bombardeos. Las Naciones Unidas planean aumentar la entrega de ayuda durante los primeros 60 días del alto el fuego, inundándola de alimentos, agua, saneamiento, suministros médicos y refugios improvisados. Dice que toda la población de Gaza necesita algún tipo de ayuda alimentaria. ¿Michelle? Deborah, gracias por tu informe.
