Trump's role in getting the Israel-Hamas peace deal signed

Season 2025 Episode 41 | 6m 58s

After the historic deal between Israel and Hamas, the Gaza ceasefire is underway, and the last of the Israelis still being held hostage are set to be released as early as next week. But enormous challenges remain, even as the bombs fall silent, and the road to lasting peace in the region remains fragile.
