It's unclear if a 60-day Gaza ceasefire is as achievable as Donald Trump's suggesting.
The US President is claiming Israel's agreed to the necessary conditions for a deal - and Qatar and Egypt will deliver it to Hamas.

He says the fundamental clash remains - no matter what Trump says.
"Hamas want Israel out of Gaza and Israel is not inclined to leave Gaza until Hamas is disarmed and all the hostages are returned."
