Today we're breaking from our usual format. Instead of bringing you a fresh, in-depth analysis, we’re taking a moment to reflect on a critical moment in the ongoing conflict: the recent hostage release and ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas.

To do that, we’ll be revisiting some of the key moments from our previous podcasts and media coverage. These clips help us piece together the complexities of this situation and the profound impact it’s had on both sides. We'll hear from experts, those directly affected, and analysts who've been following these developments closely.

So, rather than a typical episode, we’re offering a snapshot—a look back at how the pieces have come together leading to this deal, and what it might mean for the future. Let’s dive in.
