Tensions in the Middle East dominate this news podcast, focusing on the fragile ceasefire between Iran and the US, brokered by Pakistan. The agreement is threatened by Israel's ongoing strikes against Hezbollah in Lebanon, which Israel claims are outside the ceasefire's scope, a point disputed by Iran and Pakistan. Correspondents report on the devastation in Beirut following Israeli airstrikes, with hundreds dead and injured. The podcast also covers the US perspective, with officials claiming a victory and Iran asserting its control over the Strait of Hormuz. Other segments include the sentencing of a woman for providing drugs that led to Matthew Perry's death, and updates from the Artemis II mission astronauts.
