    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.
