## Resource

Host Noa Levi reports on the controversy surrounding Gazan photojournalist Motaz Azaiza's decision to withhold footage of Israeli hostages being beaten on October 7th, raising questions about journalistic standards and accountability. The show also covers a diplomatic dispute, with Qatar denying Israeli allegations of funding Hamas and pointing to Israeli domestic political motivations. Prime Minister Netanyahu's office called the report "recycled lies." Finally, we look at a growing sense of responsibility among Israeli youth, with a 50% surge in demand for pre-military academies since the war began.
