Palestinian Politician Nasser al-Kidwa
Amanpour
Oct 16, 2025

The ceasefire in Gaza is just four days old, and already there are signs of tension: Hamas says it's handed over all the hostages remains it can access, without specialist equipment. Israel is restricting aid in retaliation. Meanwhile, Israel returned 120 bodies of Palestinians held during the war, some of which show signs of abuse and beating. And with Hamas reasserting its authority in brutal fashion against ordinary Palestinians there are also growing questions around the future governance of Gaza. Nasser al-Kidwa is a well-known Palestinian politician, nephew of Yasser Arafat and former Foreign Minister for the Palestinian Authority. In recent years he's worked on a peace plan alongside former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert. Al-Kidwa joins Christiane from Ramallah in the occupied West Bank.
