As the conflict continues, we hear how a business tries to stay afloat in Israel, and we look into the role cryptocurrencies may have played in the financing of Hamas. The trial of the founder of FTX, Sam Bankman-Fried, goes on in New York. We get the latest from our correspondent. An undercover investigation by the BBC has exposed a blackmail scam using instant loan apps to entrap and humiliate people across Asia, Africa, and Latin America. We hear more about how it worked.
