Brig.-Gen. (res.) Yossi Kuperwasser joins ILTV’s Maayan Hoffman to break down what he calls a turning point in Israel’s long battle against Iran’s nuclear ambitions. In this episode, Kuperwasser explains why the damage to Iran’s program is far deeper than it appears—and how a new doctrine of preemptive strikes is reshaping regional power dynamics. From the loss of key nuclear scientists to the destruction of irreplaceable facilities like Isfahan, Iran has suffered what he calls a “very severe” blow. Kuperwasser also explores the ripple effects on Gaza, Hamas, Hezbollah, and prospects for normalization with Saudi Arabia. Is this the end of Iran’s nuclear dream—and the beginning of a new Middle East?

In this episode of the ILTV News Podcast, Executive Editor Maayan Hoffman sits down with geopolitical analyst Avi Melamed to discuss the future of Iran, the fallout from its collapsing regional strategy, and why Israel may now be the dominant force in the Middle East. Melamed warns against trusting any ceasefire with the Iranian regime and outlines how regional dynamics—from Saudi normalization to weakened Iranian proxies like Hezbollah and Hamas—may be entering a dramatic new chapter. Could we be witnessing the beginning of long-term Middle East stability?

On today’s episode of ILTV Daily News: A ceasefire goes into effect as Iran halts its missile attacks on Israel. But not before one final strike kills five people in Beersheba. Meanwhile, U.S. President Donald Trump calls on both Israel and Iran to "calm down."

On this episode of the ILTV News Podcast, Executive Editor Maayan Hoffman speaks with two powerful voices on the frontlines of Israel’s hidden war: the mental health crisis. Prof. Eyal Fruchter, former IDF mental health chief and co-founder of ICAR, explains how repeated missile attacks—first from Hamas, now Iran—are retraumatizing an already battered population. He breaks down the warning signs of PTSD, how civilians and soldiers are coping, and what Israel is doing (and not doing) to scale up care. Yuval Wagner, founder of Access Israel, reveals how people with disabilities are being left behind during evacuations—and what his team is doing to save lives under fire.
