(251008) -- GAZA, Oct. 8, 2025 (Xinhua) -- This photo taken on Sept. 1, 2025 shows tents for displaced Palestinians in Gaza City. As Hamas and Israel are meeting in Egypt over a potential ceasefire the world anxiously awaits, Gaza marked the grim second anniversary of the conflict on Tuesday.

Over the past two years, what began as a cross-border attack by Hamas has, under the weight of political brinkmanship and superpower indulgence, snowballed into one of the world's deadliest conflicts in recent memory, adding yet another open wound to a region already scarred by conflicts and grievances.

Despite the ongoing peace talks, analysts warn that as long as the core rights of the Palestinian people are sidelined, enduring peace in the Middle East will remain little more than a pipe dream. (Photo by Rizek Abdeljawad/Xinhua)
