Who can enforce the Gaza ceasefire deal? | Inside Story

Israel says it's returned to the Gaza ceasefire -- after launching a wave of air strikes on Sunday, killing more than 40 Palestinians.
It blamed Hamas for the breach, saying its fighters were responsible for an attack that killed two Israeli soldiers.
Hamas denies breaking the ceasefire.
The violence was a reminder for Palestinians that Israel is willing to suspend peace, and unleash its firepower, whenever it sees fit.
The US insists the truce will hold -- and has sent Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Presidential Advisor Jared Kushner to Israel.
But the renewed assault has cast doubt on whether the ceasefire will advance to the second phase -- which is meant to see Hamas disarm and Israel withdraw from Gaza.
