Lebanese President Joseph Aoun met US President Donald Trump in
Washington this week with a historic proposal: end the war
between Lebanon and Israel, force an Israeli withdrawal from the
south, and disarm Iran’s proxy group Hezbollah. Could it
work?

On today’s bonus episode of Iran: the Latest, Venetia Rainey
speaks to the arts director at local charity Seenaryo, about the
reality for civilians caught up in the conflict in Lebanon, how
people are worried the latest escalation in Iran will spillover,
and why Hezbollah would just be replaced by a similar group if it
was disarmed.

Plus, first-person accounts of what it’s like to live under the
shadow of war. Excerpts from pieces written for Seenaryo by
Syrian refugee Eman Fisal Almodhi, read by Irish actor Jessie
Buckley, and a WhatsApp conversation between Lebanese women
displaced in south Lebanon, read by British-Lebanese-Palestinian
actor Sirine Saba.
