Israel has used sexual and reproductive violence in Gaza as a weapon of war in what the UN has declared is a 'genocidal act', how will the international community react to the latest damning reports of Tel Aviv's abuse of Palestinians? Will action finally be taken to hold Israel to account.

This episode was recorded before Israel launched its intensified bombing campaign in Gaza on Tuesday, killing over 400 Palestinians.

 
This week, we begin our analysis by looking into one of the most damning reports yet; a UN Human Rights Council investigation exposing Israel’s systematic use of sexual violence and genocidal acts in Gaza. From Israeli security forces using rape as a weapon of war to the destruction of reproductive health facilities, the findings are harrowing. What does this mean for international accountability?
We also dissect US President Donald Trump’s denial that he is seeking to expel Palestinians from Gaza while reports surface that he is holding secret discussions to forcibly relocate Gazans to East Africa. Meanwhile, Hamas has reportedly agreed to release a US-Israeli soldier. Is Hamas trying to drive a wedge between the US and Israel?

The US has once again bombed Yemen, marking yet another chapter in Washington’s long-standing pattern of attacking one of the poorest countries on Earth. With at least 53 dead, we ask: What triggered this latest round of strikes? And is this really about protecting shipping lanes, or is something else at play? Meanwhile, in Syria, Israel has facilitated the first Druze visit in 52 years, sparking outrage among Syrian Druze leaders who accuse Israel of manipulating religious visits to expand its influence.

Finally, we analyse the growing crackdown on pro-Palestinian voices in the US, from Columbia University facing federal funding cuts following the student movement calling for an end to Israel's genocide in Gaza, to the White House labelling a Palestinian activist Mahmoud Khalil a 'threat' despite admitting he broke no laws. And in a surreal twist, Germany’s own anti-Semitism czar has pulled out of Israel’s anti-Semitism conference because Israel invited actual anti-Semites. Has the fight against anti-Semitism collapsed under the weight of its own contradictions?
