Julia Hartley-Brewer Reacts To Israel Rejecting Ceasefire Deal With Hamas

Julia Hartley-Brewer analyses the unfolding situation in Gaza with former Government adviser Claire Pearsall after Israel rejected a ceasefire deal with Hamas. Israel has faced warnings from other allies, including US President Joe Biden, and humanitarian agencies over the potential harm to more than a million Palestinian civilians in Rafah if it carries out its long-threatened attack. The Israeli military has told around 100,000 Palestinians to leave parts of the city, signalling that a ground invasion could be imminent. Israel had previously paused its plan to attack Rafah, which it says is the last significant Hamas stronghold, to allow for negotiations over the release of Israeli hostages by Hamas. Julia says: “What are they supposed to do, just leave Hamas in Rafah and go: ’That’s fine, you just keep our 134 hostages’?“ #israel #gaza #juliahartleybrewer #talktv Click here for more from TalkTV If you need any help visit
