In this gripping episode, Hallak provided an on-the-ground account of the devastating effects of Israeli air raids on Lebanese civilian areas, the severe humanitarian toll on Gaza, and the rising tensions with Iran. He detailed Lebanon’s economic challenges, which have worsened conditions for Palestinians in refugee camps, affecting access to health and education. The conversation also touched on the formation of an international alliance aiming to counter US influence, including representatives from 15 European nations, illustrating a broader global response to the Middle Eastern crisis.

Hallak also discussed his recent trip to South Africa, where the government has pledged its support for Palestine by bringing a case against Israel to the International Criminal Court. He shed light on South Africa’s proactive stance, Germany’s recent condemnation of Israel, and the ongoing assault on UNRWA, the United Nations agency dedicated to Palestinian refugees. These topics underscore the complexities of international support and solidarity amidst a backdrop of escalating military confrontations, increasing the need for immediate global attention to the situation.
