Israel Hamas latest: Why the ceasefire never happened
Listen now
Description
The Israeli Defense Force says it has taken 'operational control' of the Gaza side of the Rafah crossing, the main entry point for aid into the region. It comes less than 24 hours after Hamas said they would accept a ceasefire deal drawn up by Egyptian mediators.    On the Sky News Daily, Niall Paterson talks to our international affairs editor Dominic Waghorn to explore why Israel rejected the deal, saying it fell "far from meeting" its "core demands", and Aaron David Miller, senior fellow at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace and former Middle East negotiator under Republican and Democratic US administrations.   Producer: Rosie Gillott  Senior Producer: Annie Joyce  Podcast Promotions Producer: David Chipakupaku   Editor: Philly Beaumont
