When Will Iran Strike? - Kalam Digest 1

This is the first installment of Kalam Digest, a weekly news summary bringing you the latest political developments in the Middle East.

In today's episode, Edgar and Sam speak about Israel's new wartime strategy of striking schools in Gaza, while the US delivers $3.5 billion in fresh aid.

According to leaks from within Israeli intelligence, Iran is expected to strike Israel within the next few days. What shape will this attack take, and what are its implications for the region?

All the while, the negotiations for a ceasefire and a hostage deal are ongoing - Sam and Edgar discuss whether or not the two sides want to reach an agreement before or after Iran strikes.

Finally, the West Bank is still under extreme strain from both Israeli raids and settler violence. How does this situation tie into the rest of the picture?
