Talks on a hostage release and ceasefire deal in Gaza appear to be at a standstill.

On this, we speak to Ehud Olmert, Israel's prime minister from 2006-2009. #EhudOlmert #Israel #Gaza For more news go to: http://www.dw.com/en/ Follow DW on social media: ►Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dwnews ►TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@dwnews ►Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/deutschewellenews/ ►Twitter: https://twitter.com/dwnews Für Videos in deutscher Sprache besuchen Sie: https://www.youtube.com/dwdeutsch Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/user/deutschewelleenglish?sub_confirmation=1
