About this listen

Much has been said about Iran's Axis of Resistance. From Hamas in the Gaza Strip to Hezbollah in Lebanon to the Houthis in Yemen, these militant organizations have cast a long shadow over Middle East geopolitics and security. On this episode of PINDROP, we delve into this network of Iranian-backed militias to answer core questions about these groups. How and why did Iran create this network? To what extent do these groups have operational autonomy from the Islamic Republic? Most importantly, how will the various militant actors in this network be involved in the ongoing war between Israel and Gaza and the broader regional tension that entails? PINDROP Co-Producers Nick Castillo and Diego Austin will speak with Middle East political expert Faysal Itani of the Newlines Institute to find out. ------- PINDROP World News is produced by Francisco "A.J." Camacho, Nicholas Castillo, and Diego Austin.
