The Nobel Peace Prize has been criticized for being about the wealthy whitewashing their involvement in violence.
US President Donald Trump announced a peace deal between Israel and Hamas, potentially ending two years of violence.
Trump has repeatedly declared that he “deserves the prize”, claiming he has “ended seven wars” since 2017.
