This week, Syria's main opposition coalition joins talks to end the conflict, but says it won't negotiate on its demands. We take a closer look at the High Negotiations Committee. Also, Israeli authorities are bulldozing the homes of Palestinian knife-attackers' families, but how effective is the policy? Finally, we head to Jerusalem where the green light for a joint prayer site at the Wailing Wall has sparked controversy among traditionalists.
The French national assembly has voted to recognise Palestine as a state.The foreign minister argued that recognising a Palestinian state - as Sweden's recently done - makes sense in the context of a broader peace deal. But there's no deal in sight, not even talks. Instead, since the last round of U-S-brokered negotiations collapsed, there's been another war in Gaza and increased attacks by extremists on both sides. Will the outside world's pressure help break the impasse?
In Iraq, water is being used as a weapon of war. We look at how Islamic State militants still control certain key waterways. Next, 50 days of fighting between Israel and Hamas has left 10,000 Palestinians injured, many of whom will remain permanently disabled. And not so happily ever after: as divorce rates rise in Iran, we explore some of the possible explanations for this surprising trend.
