How Hamas' hostage horror could spark a new war

The Daily T

It was an appalling image: the coffins of four Israeli hostages, two of them young children, presented on stage in front of a crowd before being returned to their families.

Then in a cruel twist, it emerged that one of the bodies was not that of Shiri Bibas as Hamas had claimed, nor of any of the hostages taken on October 7th.

Could these latest appalling developments derail an already shaky ceasefire in Gaza?

Kamal and Gordon put that question to the Telegraph’s Jerusalem correspondent Henry Bodkin, and ask about the mood in Israel and the potential role of Arab nations in redeveloping Gaza.
