In a bold diplomatic move, former U.S. President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have thrown their weight behind a new ceasefire proposal for Gaza - but there’s a catch, Hamas hasn't signed on. Speaking at the White House, Trump declared they were “beyond very close” to ending the war but warned Hamas of dire consequences if they reject the peace terms. The proposal includes a ceasefire, hostage-prisoner swaps, Israeli withdrawal, Hamas disarmament, and an international transitional government. But questions remain, Will the plan hold without Palestinian Authority involvement or the promise of statehood? Phemelo unpacks it all with Palestinian political analyst, Xavier Abu Eid.
