On today's episode, we speak to our Middle East correspondent Natalia Vasilyeva in Jerusalem on Israel's impending assault on Rafa and Biden's threats to halt weapons supplies to Israel. Then, we hear from Jumana Shahin, a Gaza resident who's fled to Egypt to protect herself and her young daughter. Then, we speak to our economics reporter Melissa Lawford on the dire state of Iran's economy. And finally, I talk to senior foreign correspondent Roland Oliphant, who recently saw the film Civil War, directed by Andrew Garland. Roland, as a war reporter, had some thoughts on the film and he shares them with us.ContributorsDavid Knowles (Host) @djknowles22 on X.Nataliya Vasilyeva (Middle East Correspondent) @Nat_Vasilyeva on X.Jumana Shahin @jumana.shahin on InstagramMelissa Lawford (Economics Reporter) @Melissalawford on XRoland Oliphant (Host, Senior Foreign Correspondent) @rolandoliphant on XRead‘Iran is broke’: How clerics crippled the Islamic Republic by Melissa LawfordFor 3 months access to The Telegraph for just £1: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/audio |Email: [email protected] Hosted on Acast.
