About this listen

In this week’s episode of The Deep Dive, host Jacob Laznik sits down with Sarah Ben-Nun to break down Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s request for a presidential pardon from Isaac Herzog. What are the legal and political implications, and is this a preemptive move in light of upcoming legal battles? Next, after Hamas returned the remains of Sudthisak Rinthalak, only one hostage is being held in Gaza: Ran Gvili.

Udi Goren, cousin of slain hostage Tal Haimi, joins us to share perspective and the unrelenting demand for everyone to return home. Finally, Diaspora affairs correspondent Mathilda Heller joins to explain why Guinness World Records is reportedly no longer accepting Israeli applicants, and what it says about Israel’s growing international isolation.
