    Since the October 7 massacres parts of Hollywood and the wider entertainment industry have been accused of failing to condemn Hamas in a meaningful way. At the biggest showbiz event of the year, the Oscars, Director Jonathan Glazer, accepting the International Feature academy award for Zone of Interest said, "we stand here as men who refute their Jewishness and the Holocaust being hijacked by an occupation". The Holocaust Survivors’ Foundation USA has condemned the speech as “morally indefensible” and “disgraceful”. The Sun’s David Ross speaks with Leo Pearlman, managing partner of the production company Fulwell 73, to get his take on Hollywood's response and his experiences. Hosted on Acast.

    Hamas leader and October 7 mastermind Yahya Sinwar has been seen on video running through a terror tunnel with his children, just days after two hostages were rescued by Israeli special forces in Rafah. Israel has faced pressure from the international community to pause a planned offensive in the city. The Sun’s David Ross speaks with Middle East commentator Hillel Fuld, who says the IDF needs to push ahead and wipe out Hamas. In related news, it's being described as an 'explosion of hatred' in the UK. More than 4,000 anti-semitic incidents were recorded in Britain in 2023, with the "sheer volume" following on from the Hamas attacks of October 7th. David Ross speaks to Liahav Eitan, a Jewish victim of antisemitism at London’s Soho theatre this week. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Learn more about your ad choices.

Shortly after takeoff, it was hijacked and the flight was diverted first to Libya and then Entebbe Airport in Uganda.

    Israel’s military leaders say its operation to destroy the Hamas terror group is shifting from intense battles to more targeted operations. IDF Rear admiral Daniel Hagari has said the Israel Defense Forces are likely to use fewer ground troops in Gaza going forward. Casey Babb from the Institute for National Security Studies in Tel Aviv says the Hamas leadership is increasingly the focus. This next military phase comes as The International Court of Justice - the I-C-J has been asked to hear a case brought by South Africa as to whether Israel is committing genocide against the Palestinians in Gaza. It does not have the backing of most western countries including the US and the UK. We spoke with Anne Herzberg, Legal Advisor at NGO Monitor who explained why Israel so vehemently rejects the accusation which it considers baseless. Hosted on Acast.

    In the latest episode of The Sun's 'Israel's War on Terror' podcast, we hear from one of the 'voices of the conflict', Egyptian author Dalia Ziada. In the wake of the Hamas terror massacre of October 7 2023 in southern Israel, in which 1200 people were murdered and around 240 others were taken hostage, anti-Semitism soared. Instead of sympathy for the victims, many people on social media and commentators on the Middle East, failed to criticise the terrorists despite the sickening details of the atrocities. Ziada explains how she was forced into hiding for siding with Israel and daring to criticise Hamas. Her comments come amid fears the region is on the brink of a wider conflict with Hezbollah increasing its attacks from Lebanon and Israel purportedly behind the assassination of a Hamas leader in Beirut. Author and counter-terror expert Samuel Katz explains how the situation may develop from here. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Learn more about your ad choices.
