The US is preparing to continue pushing through its peace deal in Gaza, as both sides accuse each other of violating the ceasefire.
Israel's struck dozens of targets in southern Gaza, in response to Hamas allegedly firing upon IDF troops.
The delivery of aid has also been halted over the alleged violation.
CBS correspondent Linda Gradstein says a delegation including the US Vice President JD Vance is expected to arrive in Israel tomorrow to push through the next stage of the deal.

Episode Transcript
Reality is starting to play a bigger role in the
Middle East, with the latest reports that the US have
had credible report apparently that Hamas was planning an imminent
attack on civilians in Gaza. That's not forgetting. They were
supposed to disarm, of course, as part of the piece.
Deel Linda Gretstein is CBS News correspondent in Jerusalemic with US.
Linda morning to.
Speaker 2 (00:16):
You, good morning.
Speaker 1 (00:18):
What are you hearing? How messy is this?
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Well, it is pretty messy.
Speaker 3 (00:24):
I mean, you know, two Israeli soldiers were killed today
in Gaza in an attack from anti tank fire, and
Israel responded with widespread attacks across Gaza, reportedly killing dozens
of Hamas people. Now, Hamas says that it wasn't them,
that they were not the ones who attacked the Israeli soldiers.
(00:44):
Israel says it is them. Hamas still has the bodies
of sixteen hostages who were either killed before they were
taken hostage or killed while in captivity.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
There's no sign of Hamas disarming.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
However, it does seem that both sides don't want to
throw away the ceasefire yet, and yet it's pretty tenuous
at this point.
Speaker 1 (01:08):
What about the aid flow.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
So Israel cut off the aid flow. Now it had
started to ramp up again. You know, we're just over
a week into the fire, and Israel said that it
was closing all of the crossings.
Speaker 2 (01:22):
And that no humanitarian aid would get in.
Speaker 3 (01:25):
However, there are reports that Israel will reopen those closings tomorrow.
That this is not going to be a long term
kind of thing, just a response to the Hamas attack
on the Israel.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
So if we continue with days of this, who calls it?
At what point to somebody go, this isn't actually happening
here and what we thought was going to happen isn't.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
Well, I guess it's President Trump who calls it. Actually,
I mean it's really President Trump who is behind this,
And in fact, the Vice President JD. Vance and US
Special Envoy Steve Whitcofford's in Israel probably tomorrow to try
to push through the next stage of this, and that
is Hamas disarming and some sort of technocratic government put
(02:12):
in place in Gaza, some sort of military stabilization force.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
That doesn't include Hamas.
Speaker 3 (02:17):
But you know, these kinds of things don't happen overnight.
They take time, and the problem is the more time
they take there is. Meanwhile, Hamas is consolidating its control
over Gaza again.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
All right, Linda good to Tortio will stand touch Linda Gritstein,
who is the CBS News correspondent in that particular part
of the world. For more from the Mic Hosking Breakfast,
