Though thousands of Palestinians are going back to northern Gaza, rebuilding their lives and homes will take years. Just a week into the ceasefire, our correspondent says peace already looks fragile. Why Russian drones are being targeted at civilians in Kherson (9:44). And would game theory help you win “The Traitors” (15:28)?

  • THE Economist.

  • Hello and welcome to the Intelligence from the Economist.

  • I'm Jason Palmer.

  • And I'm Rosie Blore.

  • Every weekday we provide a fresh perspective on the events shaping your world.

  • When Russian forces withdrew from the city of Kherson more than two years ago, it seemed a triumphant liberation for Ukraine.

  • But the artillery never really stopped and civilians are now being intentionally attacked, chased even by a new weapon, drones.

  • And if the finale of the British version of Traitors left you thinking that you'd have done better on the TV show, well, our faithful colleague thinks you'd be as useless as the other contestants.

  • His strategy for winning?

  • Try using game theory.

  • First up, though.

  • This morning, thousands of Palestinians walked home to northern Gaza as part of the ceasefire deal reached between Israel and Hamas.

  • That followed a weekend of emotional reunions.

  • Hamas released four Israeli soldiers in return for 200 Palestinians who'd been held in Israeli jails.

  • But the ceasefire has not been without stumbles.

  • Just a week after the truce, peace remains fragile.

  • There were some remarkable scenes on Monday morning after the ceasefire in Gaza seemed to get back on track following some hiccups over the weekend.

  • Greg Karlstrom is our Middle east correspondent.

  • Israeli troops withdrew from part of the corridor that bisects Gaza, and thousands of Palestinians streamed from the south back to the north.

  • Greg, you talked about hiccups there.
