tomorrow, another 59 israeli hostages left in gaza. their release needs to be negotiated, but hamas is determined that their release will include the end gershon, what happens if there is no phase two? as palestinian prisoners. will be renewed with a breach either by israel or by hamas. there is a third possibility here that president trump with this deal and get it done. that's how the first part

of the deal was done. the americans have very little leverage over hamas, the mediators. we are not going to see this war ending or this deal done additional hostages, while israel releases prisoners soldiers that they're holding, they're demanding the release of 1000 palestinian prisoners. there are still hundreds of palestinian prisoners israelis in the past.

who are serving multiple life sentences. also phase two has to bring about the end of the war. and no one has really come up with a solution of who's going to replace hamas yet. control of gaza to other palestinian groups? clear on giving up arms. and this is a crucial point. it seems to me that there might

be a break of discipline, and perhaps that the outside leadership doesn't have full control over what goes inside of gaza today. continue to control gaza. reconstruction of gaza as long as hamas is in charge. no one is going to put money into rebuilding gaza which is not hamas. this is bbc news.
