This week we kick off with the killing of Yasser Abu Shabab, leader of an Israeli-backed militia in Gaza, before moving to CNN’s chilling investigation revealing how Israeli forces bulldozed the bodies of Palestinian civilians into unmarked graves. We break down Netanyahu’s admission that Israel’s war “can never truly end,” and the ICC’s pushback against US intimidation. Plus, we look at Trump’s emerging Gaza plan, the fallout over Tony Blair’s role, and what Washington’s new national security strategy signals for the Middle East.

We also explore Gaza’s internal dynamics, the regional frustration with Israel’s ongoing violations of ceasefire, and the deep moral crisis emerging within segments of the Israeli military. Finally, we examine Syria one year after the fall of Bashar al Assad and what this shifting landscape means for regional politics.
