Hamas publishes names of three hostages they say will be released on Sunday

This list has been the key stumbling block behind Israel鈥檚 delay of the Gaza ceasefire.

This list has been the key stumbling block behind Israel鈥檚 delay of the Gaza ceasefire. The three women the militant group says it will release first are Romi Gonen, Emily Damari, and Doron Steinbrecher.

Also on the programme: we hear from the participants of an anti-Trump rally in Washington DC on the eve of the President-elect's inauguration; and TikTok has gone offline in the US, hours before a new law banning the platform was due to come into effect.

Joining Krupa Padhy to discuss all this and more in the studio in London are Jenny Kleeman, a journalist and author, and Chietigj Bajpaee, a senior research fellow for South Asia at the UK based think tank Chatham House.
