About this episode

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced a new phase of the war that has sparked fears of a full-blown war with Hezbollah, which the US has warned could be disastrous. Netanyahu also made comments that appeared to be a death knell for any Gaza peace deal which is backed by President Biden. One of Netanyahu’s fiercest critics is Ami Ayalon, the former head of the Israeli internal security agency Shin Bet. He speaks to Christiane about what hopes Israel could have of ending the war and returning all of the hostages.
