U.S President Donald Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu are pushing a proposed 60-day truce but face tough issues over aid and security guarantees. We get insights from Dr. Ferooze Ali, Senior Lecturer at the Faculty of Law and International Relations, Sultan Zainal Abidin University.
