A ceasefire has finally been agreed between Israel and Hamas.
The news came as a great relief to the people of Gaza, but many questions regarding the deal still remain.
This week on The New Arab Voice podcast we look at the details of the ceasefire deal. When will Israeli forces leave Gaza, what are the terms of the prisoner swaps, and what does it say about reconstruction.
Additionally, we explore why the ceasefire deal was agreed now and not six months ago, what does the future hold for Hamas in Gaza, can Netanyahu continue as prime minister now that a deal has been done, who will pay for the reconstruction efforts, and what does the political horizon in Gaza look like.
To discuss the ceasefire deal and what it means for Gaza, we speak with Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib (@afalkhatib), a resident senior fellow at the Scowcroft Middle East Security Initiative at the Atlantic Council (@AtlanticCouncil).
And to lead us through what the deal means for Israel, we speak with Nimrod Goren (@GorenNimrod), President and Founder of The Mitvim Institute (@Mitvim), a foreign policy think tank.
This podcast is written and produced by Hugo Goodridge (@hugogoodridge).
Theme music by Omar al-Fil.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
