MEI Senior Fellow Lucy
Kurtzer-Ellenbogen joins hosts Alistair Taylor and Matthew Czekaj
to discuss the latest developments in Gaza. Nearly four months
after the Israeli government and Hamas agreed to President Donald
Trump’s 20-point plan, Washington has announced that phase two of
the process is now underway. Kurtzer-Ellenbogen, Taylor, and Czekaj
examine the humanitarian situation in the devastated coastal strip,
assess what phase two could entail, break down how international
actors are responding, and explore what would need to happen to
realize the plan’s aspirations.
