Axios

Hundreds of thousands have been taking to the streets in Israel, ever since the bodies of six murdered Israeli hostages were found last week in a tunnel in Gaza. It marked an escalation by Hamas, Axios' Barak Ravid tells Niala Boodhoo. Ravid has been covering the war since the start, and reporting on the Middle East for his entire career. As we approach the one year anniversary of the start of this conflict, he brings us inside the negotiations, the protests, and the stark reality of this new chapter in the war.

Guest: Barak Ravid, political reporter and Middle East expert for Axios covering foreign policy and the 2024 election.
