NextImg:Daily Briefing Oct. 18: Day 378 – With Sinwar dead, US looks to renew hostage talks

Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world.

US bureau chief Jacob Magid joins host Jessica Steinberg on today’s podcast.

Magid discusses the different methods used to identify Sinwar’s body and what can be seen of the Hamas leader in the drone footage taken at the scene just before the strike that killed him.

He reviews reactions from the Biden administration, including calls made to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and various leaders in Qatar and Egypt in the hopes that Sinwar’s death can shift the dynamic in the stalled hostage negotiations.

Magid talks about who could be the new Hamas leader and how extreme some of those successors could be compared to Sinwar, who was killed in Gaza by IDF troops.

Magid also discusses the possibility of a more dialed-back response to the Iran attack on Israel on October 1 and looks at Israel letting aid into northern Gaza, with shipments from Jordan and other crossings reopened to allow aid to flow in more easily, after threats from the US administration to withhold arms deliveries.
