Middle East Ceasefire Holds for Third Consecutive Week

International monitors report full compliance from all parties as humanitarian corridors begin operating at capacity.

The ceasefire brokered by a joint US-Qatar-Egypt team has now held for 21 consecutive days, the longest uninterrupted peace in the region in over two years. UN humanitarian chief described the access as "unprecedented," with 340 aid convoys successfully delivering food, medicine, and shelter materials. Permanent status negotiations are scheduled to begin in April.
