Gregg Carlstrom, Middle East correspondent with The Economist, discusses the shooting attack in Jerusalem which has left at least six people dead and seven seriously wounded.

Airstrikes and tanks continued pounding the outskirts of Gaza City over the weekend, as Israel's plans to seize the strip's largest urban centre continued. A much bigger operation, widely condemned by the international community, could begin within days or weeks.This is all happening as the world's leading authority on food crises is saying that Gaza City and surrounding areas — currently home to half of the territory's population — is now gripped by famine, and that it's likely to spread across the rest of the strip unless a ceasefire is negotiated.Meanwhile, Israel recently approved a major settlement plan which would functionally divide the West Bank in two, blunting hopes for a future Palestinian state.Given all this — what's the latest on ceasefire negotiations, and is there any sense that Western states have plans to step up pressure on Israel over either Gaza or the West Bank?Today, Gregg Carlstrom, the Economist's longtime Middle East correspondent, is back on the show to discuss all of this.

As attacks from both countries continue, scheduled talks between Iran and the US over the future of Iran’s nuclear program have been cancelled.

Gregg Carlstrom, Middle East Correspondent with The Economist, outlines international - and local - pressure facing the Israeli government for its' military operation in Gaza.

Two weeks ago, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced his plans to step up his country’s attacks on Gaza, with “extensive ground operations”. Israeli officials have described the strategy as “conquering” and occupying the strip. That plan is now underway, with ground operations in the north and in the south. In the past week, hundreds of Palestinians have been killed, making it one of the deadliest periods in Gaza since ceasefire negotiations broke down in March. Last week, Donald Trump visited the Middle East – but didn’t go to Israel. Today, Middle East correspondent for The Economist, Gregg Carlstrom, on Trump’s role in the conflict – and what it would take for the war to end.

Gregg Carlstrom, Middle East Correspondent with The Economist, reports on the details of the Gaza ceasefire agreement.

Israel, the United States, and European leaders are all missing a unique opportunity in their policy stance and behavior toward the new post-Assad regime in Syria, veteran Middle East correspondent Gregg Carlstrom said on the Haaretz Podcast. Carlstrom, a journalist for The Economist currently based in Dubai, said that the leader of the Islamist faction that led the toppling of Bashar Assad’s regime has made it clear that he has no hostile intentions towards Israel. And yet, Israel has attacked hundreds of targets in the country, targeting weapons depots and air defense systems. Israel's decision to deploy troops on the Syrian side of the Golan Heights and seize control of a buffer zone between the two countries is, according to Carlstrom, worrying and alienating the Syrian population. "For Syrians, that looks like exploitation, not security," he explained. Also on the podcast, German journalist Vera Weidenbach discussed how the collapse of Assad’s regime has reignited debates about Syrian refugees in Europe. With asylum applications frozen in Germany, and with other countries considering similar steps, she said refugees face mounting uncertainty as “deeply polarizing” rhetoric intensifies. "You see the far-right dominating the discourse in Germany, celebrating Assad’s fall as a reason for refugees to ‘finally go home,’ creating a toxic atmosphere."
