A shaky ceasefire begins in Lebanon
from Power & Politics
In the first moments of an Israel–Lebanon ceasefire announced by U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday, Power & Politics speaks to former Canadian ambassador to Israel Jon Allen about why uncertainties about the agreement and Hezbollah are still threatening a lasting peace.
