Israel at war: Tragedy on the battlefield

“Jerusalem Minute” with Alex Traiman and Lidar Gravé-Lazi, Ep. 3

On this week’s “Jerusalem Minute,” co-hosts Alex Traiman and Lidar Gravé-Lazi break down all the news of week 10 of the war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip starting with the tragedy of the three hostages accidentally killed by Israeli troops.

Should the Israel Defense Forces reassess where the hostages are? Will and should this change the way the army operates within these areas?

The two also delve into Israel’s defiance against U.S. and international pressure to end the war now through diplomatic means; an interview with Malcolm Hoenlein about the future of U.S.-Israel relations; the continued attacks by Houthi rebels in Yemen; and a Palestinian poll showing wide support for Hamas in Judea and Samaria, and in Gaza.
