Israel Rejects Hamas Ceasefire Proposal Amist an Evacuation Order for Rafah

In recent developments from the Middle East, Israel has rejected a ceasefire proposal put forward by Hamas, according to reports from Reuters. The proposal, brokered by Egypt and Qatar, was deemed "unacceptable" by Israeli officials. This rejection comes amid escalating tensions in the region and warnings of a potential ground invasion by Israel.

The ceasefire proposal, accepted by Hamas, aimed to de-escalate the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestinian factions. However, Israel's refusal indicates a significant setback in diplomatic efforts to ease the situation.
