I'm personally stoked for the ceasefire, can't wait to watch the clusterfuck be in the same spot in 1/5/10/15 years again.

I would be astonished if 2025 ends before the ceasefire is broken.

Edit: Apparently, it lasted less than a day... https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/hamas-fighters-tighten-grip-gaza-clouding-future-ceasefire-2025-10-14/

Both sides have already accused each other of breaking the agreement, such as: "Hamas accused Israel of violating the ceasefire. The Israeli military said it had fired on people who crossed truce lines and approached its forces after ignoring calls to turn back."

It is no surprise that Hamas would try to deal with the gangs that Israel started supporting in the past months. This can be seen as a move to regain control of security in Gaza. It would, of course, be nice if they would put the people through proper due process and some kind of court of law, but considering the state of Gaza, it is hard to see how that kind of bureaucracy would be possible for some time. Those gangs also lack a proper status and pose a significant security risk. They could cause civil war in Gaza or attack Israel in an attempt to continue the war. Both would be disastrous for the future.

The missing bodies of hostages also make sense as Hamas most likely has not carried them around from one hideout to another, but buried them somewhere. The people responsible for the body may also have died at some point, so Hamas may only know that the body is near some location that they haven't had access to for months.

People are again way too eager to jump to conclusions about a very chaotic situation.

Both sides have already breached various terms of the 'deal'.
It was never clear on many points anyway, so it's predictable that now is the time to test it.

Fortunately for now return to full scale war seems unlikely.

They probably should have had a replacement force ready if they actually wanted to replace Hamas. Creating a force now will allow Hamas to retake some control. Of course, creating a coalition would have been hard, as many options would have required the Palestinians to be present, and others could mount opposition to Israel's actions. Now there will be a scramble to form a force. This is not too bad for Netanyahu and company, as it gives an easy out of the deal in future.
