Despite a ceasefire agreement, Israel has officially confirmed that it will not withdraw from the Philadelphi Corridor, a strategic route along the Gaza-Egypt border. Israeli officials have stated that the army will maintain its presence in the area, raising concerns that this refusal could jeopardize the ongoing peace efforts. The situation remains tense as Israel demands conditions for any potential withdrawal, with sources indicating that the refusal to exit this narrow strip of desert may significantly undermine the truce.
