Can Israel thwart Iran's nuclear programme?
Iran retaliated by sending hundreds of armed drones towards Israel.
Israel says it had intelligence showing Iran's nuclear programme was 'developing beyond the point of return'.
But the IAEA points out striking nuclear facilities is illegal under international law, as well as dangerous.
Is it really possible for Israel to destroy Iran's nuclear facilities and is it risking a nuclear disaster by trying?

Will Gaza finally get a ceasefire?

Although it's not clear that Israeli leaders want to end the 'Forever War' they launched in the aftermath of the Hamas attack of October 7, 2023, the US has enough leverage to force a truce, argues Georgetown University visiting scholar, Khaled Elgindy. Annelle Sheline, a former State Department official who quit in protest of President Biden's Gaza policies, argues that Israel's war was 'not really about Hamas' but more about the Israeli desire to control Gaza, the West Bank and the wider region. Sheline and Elgindy delve into the details of the proposed ceasefire deal with host Steve Clemons.
