Listen Later

Indonesia is set to inaugurate Nusantara as its new capital this weekend. It will replace the current capital, Jakarta, which has a population of about 30 million people and is beginning to slowly sink into the sea. Also, two days of ceasefire negotiations over the war in Gaza wrapped up today with the participants planning to reconvene next week in Cairo, Egypt. And, a new study reveals that islands in the Scottish Hebrides may be the only place on Earth to have a detailed record of how the Earth entered into a deep Ice Age hundreds of millions of years ago. Plus, Iranian-Israeli singer Liraz Charhi releases a new song calling on people across the Middle East to talk to each other more.

Listen to today’s Music Heard on Air.
