Initiative to stop the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas
The Gaza Peace Summit is being organized to stop the ongoing fighting between Israel and Gaza. The objective of the conference is to promote peace and stability in the Middle East. The meeting comes after Israel’s recent ceasefire and partial military withdrawal. This has allowed displaced Palestinian families to return to the devastated areas.
However, there are many major obstacles to the peace process. The Palestinian militant group Hamas has announced that it will boycott the official signing of the peace agreement. He is not ready to give up his weapons. This is the main demand of the Gaza peace agreement. Hamas leaders have rejected the proposal to relocate Palestinians from Gaza as “absurd”.
