About this episode

This episode discusses the outbreak of war in the Persian Gulf and its implications for homeland security.

In this week's update, we cover the outbreak of war in the Persian Gulf region, beginning with U.S. embassies urging departures from Lebanon and Israel, and airstrikes on Hezbollah targets. This morphs into joint U.S.-Israel strikes—codenamed "Shield of Judah / Epic Fury"—on sites across Iran, including in capital. We lay out what is currently happening in the conflict, and highlight possible implications for the homeland. Stay vigilant: These global flashpoints are drawing closer.
