There are tears of grief, tears of anguish ... and on Monday, there are also tears of joy. For the first time in two years, Israelis and Palestinians are allowing themselves to exhale. We’ll discuss the return of the last hostages with our correspondent in Tel Aviv, the release of 2,000 prisoners from Israeli jails, the ramping up of aid into Gaza, and the silencing of guns. In a region accustomed to dashed hopes, could something positive emerge from what Donald Trump calls a peace deal?

There was the hero's welcome for Donald Trump in Israel, hailed by both supporters and detractors of the Israeli prime minister. In his speech, Trump turned to the Israeli president and asked Isaah Herzog to pardon Benjamin Netanyahu in his corruption trial. In the Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheik, the love in continued with everyone from the leaders of France, Germany and the UK to those of Iraq and Indonesia present for the signing of the 20-point plan.
