The ripple effects of Israel's wars in the Middle East are spinning out of control. Just last week, the Islamist Syrian rebel group Hay'at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) retook the city of Aleppo, the second-largest city in Syria.

In other news we speak about the fragile ceasefire in Lebanon and the on-going killing of Gaza.
