What does the next stage in the Israel-Gaza peace plan look like? | BBC Newscast

Today, we hear more detail about the hostage release, which a Hamas official says will take place on Monday morning, and we talk through what to expect from an international peace summit in Egypt led by US President Donald Trump and Egypt.

Over 20 world leaders, including Keir Starmer and French President Emmanuel Macron, are expected to be in attendance at Sharm El-Sheikh.

A spokesperson for Egypt’s President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi said the summit is intended to "end the war in the Gaza Strip, strengthen peace and stability efforts in the Middle East, and open a new page in regional security and stability."

Laura, Paddy and Henry discuss how big a role the UK played in the peace process.

Plus, we discuss the ongoing row over the collapse of the China spy case and whether the UK’s national security advisor Jonathan Powell has questions to answer over what happened.
