Shock and Awe - with Ilana Dayan

Unholy Media
About this episode

Israel and Hezbollah edge closer to all-out conflict than at any moment since October 7th, following a stunning display of intelligence and technical ingenuity that targeted thousands of Hezbollah operatives in Lebanon with simultaneous pager blasts. We’ll take a deep dive into the details - and reflect on the year that was with legendary Israeli journalist Ilana Dayan. Plus, an exclusive interview with a British journalist who’s been making waves this week—let’s just say, you may have heard him before on Unholy.

This episode was re-edited on Friday 4 at PM.
