The US military have ‘burnt through’ their critical missile
interceptors since the start of the Iran war. Senior commanders
warn that stockpiles for THAAD and Patriot systems are
"dangerously low." Elsewhere, the conflict in the Red Sea has
escalated as Iranian-backed Houthi rebels have escalated their
maritime blockade, striking a Saudi oil tanker in the northern
Red Sea with ballistic missiles.

On today’s episode Roland Oliphant speaks to Jerusalem
correspondent Henry Bodkin about the geopolitical implications of
depleted US missile inventories, the crumbling reality behind the
Gaza decommissioning deal, and growing political rifts inside
Israel over war aims.

Plus, Roland and Henry analyse the Israeli perspective to the
news cycle, differing cultures of leaking information between the
US and Israel, and alarming UN reports detailing a surge in state
executions across Iran.
