    I’m sorry, I was wrong. I think you are referring to the ceasefire in 2021. Ceasefires are conditional though. Meaning, if conditions change, conflict can restart. And either side can decide. There have been many ceasefires in this conflict.

    Cease-fire

    Unlike declarations of a cessation of hostilities or a truce, a cease-fire is generally meant to be binding. Like a cessation of hostilities or truce, it is only temporary in nature, but is generally expected to last for a longer period of time.

    Cease-fires do not announce the end of a conflict, but they are meant to put the opposing parties in communication with one another about potential permanent settlements.

    Unlike a truce, a humanitarian pause or a cessation of hostilities, the declaration of a cease-fire often applies to the entire geographical area of a conflict, according to the UN. Source

        Yes, they are. Here’s some more:

        The scientific term for brain freeze is “sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia.”

        Canadians say “sorry” so much that a law was passed in 2009 declaring that an apology can’t be used as evidence of admission to guilt.

        Back when dinosaurs existed, there used to be volcanoes that were erupting on the moon.

        The only letter that doesn’t appear on the periodic table is J.

        One habit of intelligent humans is being easily annoyed by people around them but saying nothing in order to avoid a meaningless argument.

        I’m obviously not that intelligent.
