Israel and Hamas have agreed to the first phase of a U.S.-backed peace plan

Israel and Hamas have agreed to the first phase of a U.S.-backed peace plan, which calls for a pause in hostilities and the release of remaining hostages in exchange for the release of Palestinian prisoners. However, the agreement is described as the “first phase,” not a complete, final peace deal. Some elements remain unresolved, especially regarding the disarmament of Hamas, the future governance of Gaza, full Israeli withdrawal, and enforcement mechanisms. Colonel Jeff McCausland, CBS Military Analyst, joins Newell to discuss.
