The ceasefire in the two-year war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza has been in place for less than 24 hours and it appears to be holding. An estimated two-hundred-thousand Palestinians have already returned to neighbourhoods in the north of the territory. Also in today's programme: Six months after Donald Trump's trade war with most of the world began in April, US soybean farmers say their industry is on the brink of collapse. And we speak to the actor Alan Fletcher, the star of the Australian soap opera Neighbours. Presenter Paul Henley is joined by Jen Stout, Scottish Journalist and author and Dr Sanam Vakil, director of the Middle East and North Africa programme at Chatham House.
