Israeli strikes on Lebanon have killed more than 2,400 people since October 7, most of them in the past month. They have mostly targeted Hezbollah's leadership and fighters, but in recent days, some government buildings have come under attack. Christian towns further north, where fighters had reportedly taken shelter, have also been hit. Analysts say these attacks are intended to disrupt Lebanon's fragile power-sharing system, which is drawn along religious lines. Is Israel trying to isolate Shia Hezbollah supporters by inflaming sectarian tension?

In this episode:
Najat Aoun Saliba, Independent Member, Lebanon's Parliament.
Georges Haddad, Lebanese Political and Security Analyst.
Drew Mikhael, Non-resident Fellow, Tahir Institute for Middle East Policy.
