Israeli leaders dreamt of redrawing the Middle East and erasing Palestine. But its wars of expansion have pushed the region to work together against it. In our first episode of this new season of Pinch Point, we investigate how the Middle East changed since October 7, how Israel abandoned diplomacy in favour of territorial expansion and permanent war, and how the region emerged from multiple crises to forge new political and economic alliances that seemed impossible before. Did Israel fall into a trap of its own making, or is it driving to a point of no return

Affordability has emerged as a defining issue in the 2026 US midterm elections, with nearly half of voters naming the cost of living as their top priority. An issue that was expected to be one of President Donald Trump's strongest political assets has instead become a growing challenge for Republicans as voters focus on household expenses and economic pressures. With the midterms approaching, concerns over everyday costs are shaping the political debate and putting the Trump administration's economic record under scrutiny.

Growing frustration over Spain’s housing crisis has sparked mass protests. The demonstrations began last month following the eviction of 87-year-old Maricarmen Abascal, who died this week, just two weeks after being forced from her home. The government proposed measures to protect tenants and freeze rents, but parliament rejected them, prompting Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez to call early elections. Sanchez also faces mounting pressure over immigration and corruption investigations. Two recent polls suggest the right-wing People's Party and far-right Vox could secure a combined parliamentary majority. Could protests over Spain’s housing crisis help turn Sanchez’s political fortunes around? Presenter: Sami Zeidan Guests: Hana Jalloul - Secretary of International Politics and Cooperation for the Spanish Socialist Workers' Party and a member of the European Parliament Daniel Lacalle - Chief Economist at Tressis and Professor at the IE Business School.

Spanish freelance journalist Jaime Velazquez says Spain's housing protests, which drew around 500,000 people onto the streets of Madrid and other cities after parliament rejected the government's emergency housing decrees on Friday, are the largest mobilisation since the 2011 Indignados movement, which broke the country's two-party political dominance. Velazquez says protesters show no sign of backing down, putting Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez in a difficult position: he could present a more ambitious housing decree as early as Tuesday to try to rebuild a parliamentary majority, or call a snap election. Some Socialist Party and cabinet members reportedly favour an early vote now, framed around housing, rather than waiting months for an election that could instead be dominated by corruption allegations surrounding the party or the recent arrival of 80,000 migrants in Ceuta. Velazquez notes Sanchez is a political survivor whose next move remains unpredictable.
