16 Palestinians Killed or Recovered in Gaza as Ceasefire Collapses

At least 16 Palestinians have been killed or recovered from rubble in Gaza over 48 hours, with over 1,066 deaths recorded since a US-brokered ceasefire took effect, as negotiations remain stalled and Israel expands territorial control. Gaza sits at the geographic and prophetic epicentre of the end-times drama Scripture describes — a land over which nations will ultimately converge in judgment. The Bible forewarns of unresolved conflict over Israel and surrounding territories in the last days, with Zechariah 12:2-3 declaring Jerusalem and the surrounding region will become 'a cup of trembling' and 'a burdensome stone for all people' before Christ's return.
