Israel and Iran: Dispatches from a City under Attack

This week, David comes live from Tel Aviv where he was woken up on his first morning by an air raid siren, accompanied by a recorded Hebrew voice telling him to get to a shelter. 

This in a week where a former Swedish prime minister said, it “looks like Trump is going to war”, posting flight tracking images that showed large US tanker aircraft being moved from the US to Europe.

For his part, Trump said on Truth Social that he had not reached out to Iran for peace talks in any “way, shape, or form”.

So, for now, rockets crash into both countries, targeting each other’s oil and gas facilities, increasing the threat of not only more warfare, but environmental disaster.

In this latest episode, we’ll speak to Meir Javedanfar, Iranian-Israeli Middle East analyst and co-author of The Nuclear Sphinx of Tehran and John Spencer, former Major in the US Army and Chair of Urban Warfare Studies.
