About this sermon
Israel and Hamas both say they are no closer to ending the war in Gaza, with Hamas adding that following the death of its leader on Thursday, the terror group will not release more hostages until there is a ceasefire. Yahya Sinwar was the architect of the October 7th terror attack on Israel. His killing by Israeli forces offers a potential window to shift the dynamic in the war in Gaza, but both Hamas and Hezbollah consider Sinwar a martyr. And Hezbollah is vowing a new phase of fighting against Israel. Middle East Peace Negotiator and expert on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Gershon Baskin, joins to share where the death of Yahya Sinwar leaves Hamas and whether there is a succession plan in place. Baskin takes us inside the Israeli camp and how the killing of Sinwar changes things for them. On another note, Baskin was part of a delegation of Israelis and Palestinians who met with Pope Francis on Thursday. Baskin tells us how that meeting came about and what it was like being a part of it. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
