Later in the show—new details emerge about an Israeli covert operation in Gaza. Special forces disguised as women penetrated enemy lines to eliminate a senior terror commander. Plus—Europe targets Russia's shadow fleet. Nearly 200 oil tankers now face sanctions as the EU and UK aim to disrupt Moscow's oil smuggling network. And in today's Back of the Brief—a historic conviction.

In this episode of The PDB Afternoon Bulletin:  First, a bombshell report out of the Washington Post is claiming that the Trump administration has threatened to abandon Israel if they do not end the war in Gaza. But the White House is pushing back, calling the claim “absurd.” We'll have the details. Later in the show—despite President Trump's efforts to broker ceasefire negotiations between Ukraine and Russia, the war shows no signs of slowing. Ukraine and Russia accused each other of launching fresh drone attacks overnight, just hours after Trump spoke directly with Vladimir Putin about reviving direct talks between Kyiv and Moscow.

The United Nations humanitarian chief Tom Fletcher has told the BBC that 14,000 babies in Gaza could die within the next two days unless aid can reach them. He said baby food brought into the territory by five trucks on Monday was "a drop in the ocean". Israel has blocked all aid from entering Gaza for the past 11 weeks, saying it was putting pressure on Hamas, which it accuses of stealing aid. The UN says permission has now been given for a further 100 aid trucks to enter Gaza on Tuesday. Medical workers in Gaza say Israeli airstrikes overnight killed at least 60 people. The attacks came just hours after Britain, Canada and France condemned the military operation as "wholly disproportionate". Also in the programme: The United Kingdom and the European Union are placing more sanctions on Russia. Will that have any effect on Moscow to end the war in Ukraine? And, one ultra-marathoner tells us what he's feeling after running across Australia.(Photo: Palestinians wait to receive food cooked by a charity kitchen, in Jabalia, in the northern Gaza Strip, May 19, 2025.

After a two-hour phone call on Monday, Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin came to very different conclusions about what was agreed. The US said ceasefire negotiations between Moscow and Kyiv would start “immediately.” The Kremlin meanwhile, said there were no deadlines to move towards peace.

And - as Europe prepares to level further sanctions - Robert Fox, defence editor at the Evening Standard, tells us the West needs to prepare for a longer term conflict.Today's episode is presented by Victoria Derbyshire and Vitaly Shevchenko.

BBC Defence Correspondent Jonathan Beale speaks to Dovilė Šakalienė, Lithuania's Defence Minister.The Baltic nation, along with its neighbours Latvia and Estonia, share a border with Russia, and have nervously watched the invasion of Ukraine, fearing they could be next.All three countries have had turbulent relationships with their much larger neighbour, Russia. They were annexed by the Soviet Union during the Second World War, and were subject to decades of rule from Moscow up until the end of the Cold War.In 2004, Lithuania joined both the European Union and NATO, and just over a decade later, adopted the Euro as its currency. But despite looking westwards, the country has always kept one eye on developments over its eastern border in Russia.Russia's annexation of the Ukrainian region of Crimea in 2014 set off alarm bells in the Lithuanian capital Vilnius, and when the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia began in 2022, Lithuania and its neighbours began fearing - and preparing - for the worst.The Interview brings you conversations with people shaping our world, from all over the world.

In a dramatic pretrial maneuver, Bryan Kohberger's defense team has introduced an "alternate perpetrator" theory in the 2022 University of Idaho student murders case. During a recent court hearing, Judge Steven Hippler acknowledged the defense's proposal but emphasized the need for concrete evidence to support such a claim. The defense has been given until May 23 to present admissible evidence identifying the alleged alternate suspect. Currently, the details of this theory remain sealed pending the judge's decision on its admissibility .Legal experts view this strategy as a high-risk attempt to introduce reasonable doubt, especially given the substantial evidence against Kohberger, including DNA found on a knife sheath at the crime scene and surveillance footage of his vehicle near the victims' residence. A hearing to assess the validity of the alternate suspect theory is scheduled for June 18, with the trial set to commence on August 11, 2025 .to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Idaho murders BOMBSHELL as Bryan Kohberger names another suspect | Daily Mail Online

Dr. Joe Rigney joins Kira to talk about empathy - what is it, why is it so destructive and how have we misunderstood it both in the church and society in general? Rigney discusses his new book, “The Sin of Empathy,” and why we need to “sober-minded” rather than peddlers of pity. “The main virtue that I commend is sober-mindedness. This is, another biblical term. And if you think about what does the word sober-minded mean, well, normally you think of sober in terms of drunkenness and alcohol, right? If you get drunk on alcohol, you're not sober, and so you need to sober up. The basic biblical claim then is you can be drunk on more than just alcohol.”Rigney is Fellow of Theology at New Saint Andrews College. He lives in Moscow, ID with his wife and three sons.

President Donald Trump said he plans to speak by phone with Russian President Vladimir Putin on the morning of May 19, followed by calls with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and NATO allies, to broker a cease-fire in the Russia–Ukraine war. Trump's remarks come on the heels of the first direct peace talks between Moscow and Kyiv since 2022, which were held in Istanbul on May 16 but which failed to produce a cease-fire.Former President Joe Biden was diagnosed with an aggressive form of prostate cancer on Friday, with the cancer cells having spread to the bone. In a post on social media platform X on Monday morning, Biden posted a photo of himself and his wife, Jill Biden, and wrote: “Cancer touches us all. Like so many of you, Jill and I have learned that we are strongest in the broken places. Thank you for lifting us up with love and support.”

Negotiations (of a sort) in Istanbul: a real engagement or just a piece of theatre? The answer, of course, is a bit of both.And what can one read into the elevation of Colonel General Mordvichev as the new commander of Russian Ground Forces?The link to the Conducttr wargame I mention is here.The podcast's corporate partner and sponsor is Conducttr, which provides software for innovative and immersive crisis exercises in hybrid warfare, counter-terrorism, civil affairs and similar situations.You can also follow my blog, In Moscow's Shadows, and become one of the podcast's supporting Patrons and gain question-asking rights and access to exclusive extra materials including the (almost-) weekly Govorit Moskva news briefing right here. Support the show

In this episode of The PDB Situation Report: Iran is caught red-handed. A new report reveals a previously unknown nuclear weapons development site, along with a covert missile production facility hidden behind oil and petrochemical operations.

On the Eastern Front, Russian forces appear to be withstanding heavy casualties—and replacing losses fast enough to reinforce troop strength.

We'll have the details. Later in the show—in a surprising development, we are learning that Israel is engaged in secret talks with the new Islamist regime in Syria.

At a pretrial hearing on May 15, 2025, Judge Steven Hippler expressed serious concern over a potential violation of the court's gag order in the Bryan Kohberger case. The issue arose following the May 9 airing of an NBC "Dateline" episode that disclosed previously unreleased details about Kohberger's internet search history and cell phone data. Judge Hippler indicated that the leak likely originated from individuals associated with law enforcement or the prosecution team, emphasizing that such breaches could compromise the fairness of the upcoming trial by making it more challenging to seat an impartial jury and potentially increasing costs and delays .In response, Judge Hippler ordered both the prosecution and defense to submit lists of all individuals who had access to the confidential information, including staff, law enforcement officers, and consultants. He also mandated that everyone involved in the case preserve all communications with journalists or outsiders regarding the investigation. Furthermore, the judge expressed his willingness to appoint a special prosecutor to identify the source of the leak, underscoring the imperative to uphold the integrity of the judicial process .to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Kohberger trial thrown into jeopardy as judge cites major violation that could prevent an impartial jury | Daily Mail Online

Day 1,177.Today, as Vladimir Putin rejects mounting Western pressure to attend peace talks in Turkey with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, attention turns to the controversial delegation he's sending in his place. Who are these representatives, and why are international diplomats describing their presence as an ‘insult' to the peace process? Plus, we report on a new monument to Joseph Stalin unveiled in Moscow, and investigate how Russia's military build-up is accelerating, not slowing, despite the war's toll.Contributors:Francis Dearnley (Executive Editor for Audio). @FrancisDearnley on X.Dom Nicholls (Associate Editor for Defence). @DomNicholls on X.Joe Barnes (Brussels Correspondent). @Barnes_Joe on X.James Kilner (Foreign Correspondent). @jkjourno on X.SIGN UP TO THE NEW ‘UKRAINE: THE LATEST' WEEKLY NEWSLETTER:https://secure.telegraph.co.uk/customer/secure/newsletter/ukraine/ Each week, Dom Nicholls and Francis Dearnley answer your questions, provide recommended reading, and give exclusive analysis and behind-the-scenes insights – plus maps of the frontlines and diagrams of weapons to complement our daily reporting.

President Zelensky has arrived in Turkey for peace talks with Russia but Vladimir Putin isn't there - and the Ukrainian leader has accused the Kremlin of sending “stand-in props” instead.Also on the programme: how the expansion of renewable energy sources is now driving down China's emissions of greenhouse gases; and the surprise discovery of an original version of one of the earliest and most important bills of rights in history – the Magna Carta.(Photo: Russian President Vladimir Putin speaks during a joint media statement with Malaysia's prime minister following their talks at the Kremlin in Moscow, Russia, 14 May 2025.

Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky has said he's still ready for talks with Russia's President Putin, but that Moscow is not serious about negotiations. He was speaking in Turkey, where he's met President Erdogan. Mr Zelensky accused Russia of disrespecting Turkey and the United States by sending a comparatively low- level delegation to Istanbul for talks, after Mr Putin decided not to attend. Mr Zelensky said he'd nevertheless send a delegation there, led by his defence minister.Also in the programme: More deadly Israeli airstrikes in Gaza - more than 100 people killed; and President Trump's plan to end birthright citizenship is heard in the US Supreme Court.(Photo: Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky.

Delegations from Russia and Ukraine are due to meet in Turkey for peace talks but the leaders of both countries will not be present, despite President Putin proposing the talks take place. Moscow has notably withheld its top diplomatic heavyweights, which according to Zelensky, means the nation is "not serious" about peace. US President Donald Trump has weighed in, saying peace won't happen until he meets with Putin himself.

Following the November 2022 murders of four University of Idaho students, suspect Bryan Kohberger's phone records revealed a series of unsettling activities. Investigators discovered that Kohberger, a criminology Ph.D. student at Washington State University, conducted online searches related to serial killer Ted Bundy and viewed pornography depicting nonconsensual acts, using keywords such as "forced," "passed out," "drugged," and "sleeping" . Additionally, surveillance footage showed a white Hyundai Elantra, matching Kohberger's vehicle, circling the victims' residence multiple times on the night of the murders . Cellphone tower data further indicated that Kohberger's phone connected near the victims' house 23 times in the four months leading up to the murders, often during nighttime hours .These findings, combined with DNA evidence linking Kohberger to the crime scene, have strengthened the prosecution's case against him. Despite this, Kohberger has pleaded not guilty and maintains his innocence, claiming he was out driving alone on the night of the murders . His trial is scheduled to begin on August 11, 2025, in Ada County, Idaho . If convicted, he could face the death penalty.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Explosive detail buried in Idaho murder suspect's phone records reveals who he called after the killings | Daily Mail Online

When Sheila Fitzpatrick first went to Moscow in the 1960s as a young academic, the prevailing understanding of the Soviet Union in the West was governed by the ‘totalitarian hypothesis', of a system ruled entirely from the top down. Her examination of the ministry papers of Anatoly Lunacharsky, the first Commissar of Enlightenment after the Revolution, challenged this view, beginning a long career in which she has frequently questioned the conventional understanding of Soviet history and changed the field with works such as Everyday Stalinism. In this episode, Sheila talks to Daniel about her work in the Soviet archives, about some of the obstacles researchers face, and her latest books, Lost Souls and The Death of Stalin.Read more by Sheila in the LRB: https://lrb.me/fitzpatrickpodSponsored links:To find out about financial support for professional writers visit the Royal Literary Fund here: https://www.rlf.org.uk/LRB AudioDiscover audiobooks, Close Readings and more from the LRB: https://lrb.me/audiolrbpod Hosted on Acast.
