What is the “resistance axis” and why does it matter in Israel’s genocide on Gaza? What is it like on the ground in Lebanon’s south where Hezbollah has been fiercely confronting the Israeli army in support of Gaza? What are the red lines for Iran and for Hezbollah? Does Yemen pose a threat and are they all coordinating or acting independently? And what would a regional war look like for the Americans and Israelis?
To answer these questions and more, Rania Khalek was joined by Al Jazeera English correspondent and columnist Ali Hashem.

BreakThrough News is building the media arm of the movement. We tell the untold stories of resistance from poor and working-class communities — because out of these stories we will construct a different narrative of the world, as it is and in real time.
Think to yourself, is this article something that would be published anywhere other than BreakThrough?
Five mega-corporations dominate the media landscape — controlling 90% of what we read, watch and listen to. People’s movements in every corner of the globe are changing history and shifting consciousness. But these movements barely receive any coverage from the corporate media. They need visibility. They need amplification. They need a media arm to break through.
Working-class people deserve better, we deserve media for and by us. We are not funded by billionaires or corporations – we are funded by you. Without you, BreakThrough would not be possible, so become a member and build the media arm of the movement with us.
