US President Donald Trump will increase pressure on Israel's government to ensure compliance with the previously established Gaza ceasefire agreement, according to informed sources.

The Financial Times reports the US administration believes it cannot delegate implementation of Trump's peace plan solely to Israel, with the President expressing dissatisfaction to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over renewed Gaza strikes and humanitarian aid disruptions.

Sources confirm Trump's dissatisfaction with Israel's attempts to find a way out of the deal.

This follows Trump's October 9 announcement of Israeli-Hamas agreement on the peace plan's first phase, with the ceasefire starting on October 10 and the second phase - including Hamas disarmament - announced days later.
