BBC OS Conversations: The first days of the Gaza ceasefire

We witness the first Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners being released following the signing of the ceasefire deal. More exchanges are expected over the coming weeks. Meanwhile some displaced people in Gaza have begun returning to see what is left of their communities, and convoys of lorries have started delivering humanitarian aid. We hear from both sides of the conflict. While many welcome the end to the fighting, there is recognition of the trauma caused and uncertainty about whether the ceasefire can hold. Udi in Israel says, “What needs to happen is that both peoples need to create a new narrative for the future.“ Asma, an English teacher displaced in a refugee camp in central Gaza "thank God" she's still alive. And three aid workers talk about the scale of the challenge ahead.
