Emotional scenes in the Middle East as hostages reunite with their families across Israel.

Busloads of Palestinian prisoners have also arrived to large crowds in Gaza in an exchange brokered by US President Donald Trump.

Meanwhile, Trump and other world leaders have signed a ceasefire deal during a summit in Egypt.

Today on The Front Page, University of Otago international relations professor Robert Patman is with us to discuss whether this actually is, as Trump says, the “historic dawn of a new Middle East”.
