The End of the Sinwar Era: What Comes Next? with Ghaith al-Omari and Nadine Epstein

The death of one-man—the October 7 mastermind and Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar—changes everything. But how? Will there be reprisals and/or renewed negotiations for a ceasefire and hostage exchange? Can another leader fill Sinwar’s shoes and who will he be? Will Iran respond? What is Netanyahu’s next move? Have we inched closer to a day when healing can begin—and a healthy Palestinian state can be achieved? Join Ghaith al-Omari, a senior fellow at The Washington Institute for Near East Policy and former executive director of the American Task Force on Palestine and Moment Editor-in-Chief, Nadine Epstein, for a conversation about possible next steps in the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas.

This program is part of Moment’s Insight into the Middle East series.
