Will Gaza Ceasefire Last? Trump's Plan "Short on Details" Beyond Release of Captives



As President Trump celebrates his Gaza ceasefire deal, major questions remain over what happens next. Democracy Now! speaks with Khaled Elgindy, visiting scholar at Georgetown University’s Center for Contemporary Arab Studies, who breaks down the U.S.-backed peace plan. Though the document includes “vague statements” on how the peace process will unfold, Elgindy says it’s wise for “Palestinians to rebuild their national movement” at this time. At the same time, Israel has refused to release political leader Marwan Barghouti, who has spent decades in Israeli prison and is widely seen as a “unifying leader” who could bring all Palestinian factions together.
