Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 15-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world, from Sunday through Thursday.

Political correspondent Tal Schneider and health reporter Nathan Jeffay join host Amanda Borschel-Dan.

Yesterday, Prime Minister Yair Lapid held a briefing at the Prime Minister's Office in Jerusalem on his approach to the Iran nuclear deal. What did Schneider hear there?

In The Times of Israel's Hebrew sister-site Zman Yisrael, Schneider wrote an in-depth article looking at the political issues surrounding a potential maritime border agreement with Lebanon. We hear some salient points.

It’s almost two years to the Abraham Accords and Schneider has charted the trade upswing with the United Arab Emirates.

The Times of Israel reported overnight about a first Israeli woman has been infected with monkeypox. Will we see a change in the vaccination policy?

Jeffay covered a troubling new survey that found that almost one in three Jewish Israelis say they would deny themselves mental health support for fear of stigma. Is this true of all ages and backgrounds?

An Israeli scientist says that artificial sweeteners should no longer be assumed safe, after his lab published peer-reviewed research suggesting they may actually increase sugar levels in the body.

Finally, Israeli scientists say they have developed a warning system for cognitive decline, which works by tracking brain function as elderly people listen to music. What is this all about?

Discussed articles include:

Iran deal draft reportedly includes 4 phases, would take full effect after 165 days

Mossad chief to visit Washington as Israel steps up efforts to reshape Iran deal

In first, woman in Israel diagnosed with monkeypox

1 in 3 Israeli Jews would forgo psychological support due to stigma, poll finds

Artificial sweeteners can harm sugar levels, shouldn’t be assumed safe – Israeli lab

Israeli scientists say brain analysis tool can spot cognitive decline — using music
