President Donald Trump announced that Israel and Hamas have reached an agreement on the first phase of a U.S.-mediated Gaza peace plan, which involves the release of all Israeli hostages and the withdrawal of Israeli forces to a previously agreed line. While important issues—like Hamas’s disarmament and the future governance of Gaza—remain unresolved, global leaders have cautiously welcomed the development. What will be needed to ensure the agreement holds? Hairianto Diman and Syahida Othman discuss this with Dr. Dilnoza Ubaydullaeva, Lecturer at the National Security College, The Australian National University.
