      A pause in a war is called what exactly?

      Oh, ceasefire. Huh.

        There’s a specific definition here though

        A pause indicates a temporary stop to advancing with no obligation to stop shooting

        While a ceasefire is they stop shooting.

        If Israel broke a ceasefire it could be seen as worse than essentially unpausing the conflict.

        It’s all wording, semantics and ultimately drivel but that’s politics and diplomacy.
