Gaza-Israel conflict
On the morning of October 7, Israel suffered the deadliest day in its 75-year history, when Hamas fighters killed over 1,400 Israelis in a surprise attack on towns bordering the Palestinian territory of Gaza. Israel responded by launching a massive barrage of airstrikes and artillery on Hamas positions, killing thousands of Palestinians in the process. Israel's political leadership has since formed a unity government in preparation for a ground offensive into the Palestinian territory. To break down this conflict, host Manila Chan is joined by journalist Sam Husseini, who discusses the events that led to the attack, and its aftermath.
