Gaza Ceasefire Talks Resume Amidst Grim Milestone: Over 40,000 Palestinians Killed

 

In a desperate bid to end the devastating conflict, negotiators from Israel and Hamas have resumed ceasefire talks in the Qatari capital, Doha. The war, which has raged for over ten months, has now claimed the lives of more than 40,000 Palestinians, according to Gaza health officials.
