Description:

In today’s episode of Trending Middle East, Israeli strikes across Lebanon have killed hundreds and injured more than a thousand people as the two-week ceasefire between the US and Iran hangs by a thread.

We look at the growing disagreement over whether Lebanon is included in the ceasefire, with Iran insisting it is and the US and Israel saying it is not.

In the UAE, senior officials outline the country’s position following the ceasefire, emphasising sovereignty and the need to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

And in Abu Dhabi, researchers are developing new cancer drugs that can both target tumours and be tracked through MRI scans, offering potential advances in care.
