Pope Francis urges an end to the fighting in Syria as he gives his Christmas address at the Vatican, saying "far too much blood has been spilled" in the conflict.
Broadcasting in Hebrew and English, Jerusalem 24 is a new radio station by Palestinians for Israelis. Its mission is to offer Israelis a Palestinian perspective on the ongoing conflict between the two sides. We take a closer look.
The blockade in Gaza makes the living conditions of its 2 million residents a constant struggle, disrupting every aspect of daily life. The periodic outbreaks of war with Israel have only deepened the humanitarian crisis, leaving nearly every civilian in the enclave affected. To confront the trauma, Malak Mattar turned to painting as an outlet. A form of healing and resistance, her brightly coloured works often depict women grappling with the complex reality of life in Gaza. She joined us for Perspective.
In the wake of the recent round of deadly fighting in Gaza; where does this leave those wanting peace and especially the women pushing for an end to violence? Annette Young talks to Palestinian activist, Huda Abuarquob, regional director for the Alliance for Middle East Peace (ALLMEP) and Israeli activist, Robi Damelin, from the Parents Circle. Plus a heavy metal band with a difference; we meet the female headbangers who keep their headscarves on as they wow the crowds in Indonesia.
In recent days, an uneasy peace has settled over Israel and Gaza, after 11 days of bloody fighting came to an end last week. As clean-up operations continue, we speak to Stanford University History Professor Joel Beinin about his belief that Hamas has positioned itself as "the one force in Palestinian society that stood up against Israel", with the militant group stepping into the void left by the Palestinian Authority.
Plus de 2.000 personnes ont participé dimanche à une marche blanche pour exprimer leur "solidarité" aux victimes de l'incendie meurtrier qui a dévasté le 14 février trois immeubles à Saint-Laurent-de-la-Salanque, près de Perpignan, tuant huit personnes.
