'We're really at a pivotal moment': Gaza truce comes into effect ahead of hostage release

FRANCE 24 international affairs editor Philip Turle talks about the tense lead-up to the first Hamas hostage release scheduled for 2pm GMT this afternoon.

"There's a big gap between 6am GMT and 2pm GMT, that's an eight-hour gap," he said. "A lot can happen in those eight hours. So I think a lot of fingers are being crossed in both the Palestinian Territories and in Israel that there are going to be no hiccups, and that this hostage deal is going to go through."
