Summary

As violence between Israel and Gaza continues, Veteran peace negotiators Khaled Elgindy and Dennis Ross say both sides may not be far from a ceasefire, but the big question is: what comes next? They join Bianna Golodryga, standing in for Christiane Amanpour, to discuss. On Saturday a targeted Israeli strike levelled a 15-storey block of media offices housing Al Jazeera and Associated Press as well as private flats. Al Jazeera English correspondent Safwat al-Kahlout joins from the ground in Gaza city to discuss. He says he "never saw anything suspicious" in the tower Israel alleges housed Hamas military offices. Turning to the coronavirus pandemic, Epidemiologist Dr. Céline Gounder says the U.S. promise to send an extra 20 million vaccines to other countries doesn't go nearly far enough. Then our Hari Sreenivasan speaks to Anna Sale, podcast host and author of “Let’s Talk About Hard Things,” about the importance of having difficult conversations about death, sex and our finances.
