We hear from the former Lebanese Health Minister, a surgeon today treating an influx of casualties in a Beirut hospital after Israel's deadly strikes. They come despite Israel and the US agreeing to a ceasefire with Iran.
We unpack why the US and Israel say Lebanon was excluded from the ceasefire with Iran, and what the Australian government's response is - hear our interview with Foreign Minister Penny Wong.
We also dissect what is happening with the Strait of Hormuz, as there's confusion over whether Iran has reopened it.
