I honestly don't see the issue in this headline. Should they remind everyone it's a fake ceasefire in every headline when that's absolutely apparent?
Yes
The idea seems to be that they are hiding that it's a ceasefire violation when they explicitly are reporting a ceasefire violation.
This would make sense if they used the same 'objective' language for countries like Russia which are adversaries but they clearly don't. If Russia did something similar all the adjectives would be in the title. And NYT wouldn't be quoting Russia but Ukraine calling it a massive ceasefire violation.
You also posted recently that using quotes as punctuation is calling something a lie so I'm a little biased against your conclusions.
Because these kinds of double standards clearly don't exist
This is literally the manufacturing consent community where shitty propaganda disguised as journalism is called out. Pretending it's a real ceasefire that was ever respected by Israel is part of the consent manufacturing.
