Why The U.S Is Holding Back A Gaza Ceasefire

Yesterday three Prime Ministers, including our own, came together to call for a sustainable ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. The call came as the UN General Assembly voted overwhelmingly to demand the same, in a strong show of global support for ending the Israel Hamas war. But Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said a ceasefire is not an option. In this episode of The Quicky, we look at what it will take to make a ceasefire happen - is international pressure enough to force Israel and Hamas to lay down their weapons?
