Israel and Hamas agreed to a ceasefire this week.

As part of the deal brokered by Egypt Israel has agreed to end all military operations in the Gaza strip area while Hamas will stop its rocket attacks against Israel.

But Pro Palestinian groups aren’t satisfied and feel the agreement is a temporary solution to Israeli aggression.

Political analyst and human rights advocate, Samah Sabawi, spoke at a Melbourne protest rally last night in support of the Palestinian cause.

2ser’s Joel Moss spoke to Sabawi about the ceasefire and the need for a certain level of compromise from both sides in order to stop the violence between Israel and Palestine.
