  • Israel's Deadly Ceasefire in Lebanon: The continuing war against Hezbollah and the failure of disarmament
    Apr 9 2026

    After four week of war, a ceasefire between Iran and the US has been reached.

    While the details remain hazy, it is a welcome development, and the region has taken a step back from the edge. But in Lebanon, the bombing continues.

    The ceasefire deal would not include the war in Lebanon, where Israel would be free to continue its war against Hezbollah.

    This week, what does Israel want in Lebanon? Can Hezbollah be disarmed? And what can the Lebanese government do to bring peace and stability to its lands?

    Joining us to discuss Hezbollah and the options for the Lebanese government is Yezid Sayigh (@SayighYezid), Senior fellow at the Malcolm H Kerr Carnegie Middle East Center in Beirut (@CarnegieMEC).

    And to give us the view from Israel, we speak with Mairav Zonszein (@MairavZ), Senior Analyst on Israel for International Crisis Group (@CrisisGroup) and a contributing opinion writer for The New York Times (@nytimes).

    This podcast is written and produced by Hugo Goodridge (@hugogoodridge).

    Theme music by Omar al-Fil with additional music from Audio Network.

    Mar 20 2026

    The US and Israel continue to launch daily airstrikes against Iran.

    As a new Supreme Leader was elected, the country's leadership continues to be targeted and killed.

    And as Israeli and US planes drop bomb, Iran is flinging missiles across the region, targeting Israel and the Gulf.

    This week on The New Arab Voice podcast, we look at if the US objectives and reasoning for the war, what they are targeting in Iran, and what successes they been having, and what they have not been hitting. Also, we look at the Gulf, who have been on the dangerous end of Iranian missiles. Why is Iran targeting the Gulf? How does the Gulf feel about being dragged into this war? What impact do the attack in the Strait of Hormuz have on the Gulf? And what does the Gulf what from this war.

    To discuss the US and Israeli strike, we speak with Annika Ganzeveld, Middle East Portfolio Manager at the Critical Threats Project (@criticalthreats). And to explain what's happening with the Gulf, we speak with Dr. Andreas Krieg (@andreas_krieg), Associate Professor at King's College London (@KingsCollegeLon), at the School of Security Studies.

    Mar 4 2026

    Iran has changed forever.

    The US and Israel are firing missiles and dropping bombs on targets across Iran. Senior figures from the regime and the IRGC are being assassinated.

    Ayatollah Khamenei was killed on the first day of the war.

    The future of Iran is still being written.

    On this week's episode of The New Arab Voice podcast, we look at recent events in Iran, and ask what are the ambitions of US President Donald Trump and the US military. We also look at the opposition inside and outside the country, and who might be able to step up and lead Iran in the future.

    We're joined by Charles W. Dunne, non-resident fellow at the Arab Center Washington D.C and Adjunct Professor at the Elliott School of International Affairs at the George Washington University. And Alex Vatanka, Senior Fellow at the Middle East Institute and author of The Battle of the Ayatollahs in Iran: The United States, Foreign Policy and Political Rivalry since 1979.
