18 April - 12 minsWhile a ten-day ceasefire has been agreed to by Lebanon and Israel, the humanitarian situation is still deteriorating, with more than a million people displaced and critical infrastructure under strain.

What’s emerging is not just a story of conflict, but of a system struggling to cope with the scale and complexity of human need. Sally Hayden, award-winning journalist with The Irish Times, joins Pat to discuss.
