What is driving Palestinian calls for de-escalation and comprehensive ceasefire in Gaza?

Palestinians in Gaza are calling for comprehensive de-escalation and ceasefire due to the unprecedented level of humanitarian catastrophe they have experienced. According to correspondent Tariq Abu Azoom, the destruction has reached historic proportions, creating an unparalleled humanitarian crisis that has deeply affected the Palestinian population. The Palestinians understand that any resumption of fighting and attacks would only lead to further destruction and devastation in their already devastated region. This understanding has created a strong collective desire among Palestinians for a complete cessation of bombardment and fighting. Their perspective is shaped by the direct experience of witnessing massive destruction and suffering, making them prioritize peace and stability over continued conflict that would only worsen their already dire humanitarian situation.
