00:00Well, this is extremely good news. The release of the Israeli hostages, getting humanitarian aid into Gaza, getting that stepped up.
00:09All of those are really good news. Phase two, of course, which is the governance arrangements about what will now follow to stabilise the situation in Gaza
00:17and make hopefully further progress towards ultimately a two state solution, of course, is some way off.
00:23So I think we have to be cautious as ever with these kind of situations in the Middle East, but extremely positive that we should hopefully see those hostages, Israeli hostages released fairly shortly.
