Gazans and Israelis celebrate ceasefire deal

Season 2025 Episode 282 | 7m 36s

Israel and Hamas signed the agreement President Trump proposed to pause their devastating two-year war in Gaza. Under the terms, Hamas will release all 20 living hostages in the coming days in exchange for Palestinian prisoners, while the Israeli military will begin pulling back, but stay inside Gaza. As Nick Schifrin reports, uncertainty remains about some of the thornier aspects of the plan.
