Dropping to 1% from 2% to reflect the passage of time (12 days remaining before Dec 1), and the Trump team's apparent signals of support to Netanyahu to continue military action to further degrade Hamas prior to a resumption of ceasefire negotiations.
AFP reported over the weekend that a Hamas political bureau official, Bassem Naim, asserted that Hamas is "ready to reach a ceaefire in the Gaza strip is a proposal is presented and on condition that it is respected by Israel...if it leads to a definitive ceasefire and military withdrawal from the Gaza Strip, allowing the return of displaced people, a serious deal for a prisoner exchange, the entry of humanitarian aid and reconstruction." Unfortunately for the residnts of Gaza, it is almost certain that Netanyahu would reject the condition of military withdrawal from Gaza.
I agree with most colleagues' rationales. The short time frame remaining until the question closes, along with the arrival of wintry weather, the vulnerability of Russian forces to ATACMs, and most importantly the Kremlin's interest in seeing what favorable negotiating conditions it can extract from the incoming Trump Administration, argue compellingly in favor of Putin not ordering a major gound offensive before the end of the year.
