Contrary to circulating media reports, a credible Egyptian source has negated the existence of a ceasefire agreement in the Gaza Strip. Additionally, no humanitarian aid has made its way into the region yet, as clarified by Cairo's prominent news channel.

Several news outlets previously suggested that an agreement on de-escalation was at hand, potentially opening avenues for humanitarian assistance. However, despite U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken hinting at a nearing agreement during his Cairo visit last Sunday, the Egyptian official source firmly contradicts these claims.
