Brief: Iran attacks Israel, Gaza’s second city is destroyed

As the Iran war continues, attention is fixed on missiles flying across the region. But in the occupied West Bank, missile shrapnel falls on Palestinian towns while deadly settler attacks, Israeli military raids and strict limits on daily life continue. With the world looking elsewhere, how do Palestinians in the West Bank view the Iran war, and what does life look like on the ground now?

 Brief: Iranian missiles hit central Israel, Israel continues to carry out strikes on Gaza. 

Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on May 24, 2019. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed.

It seemed like a recipe for conflict: Take the Iran nuclear deal, add a dash of US National Security Advisor John Bolton and some US warships, and top it off with the mysterious sabotage of oil tankers near one of the most sensitive stretches of water in the world.

This week on The Take, we go to the Strait of Hormuz to examine just how close the US and Iran have come to the edge of war.
