At long last, a ceasefire agreement has been reached in Gaza. The agreement, finalized in the closing days of the Biden administration, calls for the phased release of Israeli hostages held by Hamas and the release of hundreds of Palestinian prisoners from Israeli jails. It also includes provisions for the redeployment of Israeli troops within Gaza and a surge of humanitarian aid to the Strip.
Joining me to discuss this ceasefire deal, why it was agreed upon just as the new Trump administration takes office, and what comes next is Joel Burnold, managing director of the S. Daniel Abraham Center for Middle East Peace. We begin by examining the provisions of the ceasefire before delving into a broader conversation about its potential implementation and how recent political and diplomatic changes might impact this deal and the broader prospects for lasting peace.
