In this episode join The Round Room as we explore the long-standing conflict between Israel and Palestine, beginning with the founding of Israel in 1948 and key events like the Nakba, the Six-Day War, and the Intifadas. To the recent escalation on October 7, 2023, with Hamas' attacks and Israel's military response, as well as the resulting humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The discussion touches on the role of media, the involvement of international actors, and allegations of war crimes.
