| 0:00.0 | This is a special update from Unholy. |
| 0:03.0 | I'm Jonathan Friedland in London. |
| 0:04.9 | And I'm Unite Levine in Tel Aviv. |
| 0:06.7 | And lots, obviously, going on a change of leadership in Iran's mixed signals from Donald Trump |
| 0:13.1 | about the when this might end. |
| 0:16.8 | And also just obviously, day-to-day life is continuing under bombardment for you, |
| 0:21.1 | Yonit. |
| 0:24.2 | So we just thought we'd pull together all of that, and we're going to have a conversation with somebody who I really, really rate extremely highly as an observer of Iran, |
| 0:28.6 | who has a very sort of dissenting view compared to a lot of the sort of consensus |
| 0:32.9 | that's formulating or forming around Iran. |
| 0:36.1 | So lots to get into in this. Why don't we just start with you |
| 0:39.2 | and how it, how it is hour by hour. And I don't say day by day, but hour by hour. |
| 0:44.3 | You know, I think this is a, it's interesting because there are moments over these two and |

Here it's a different kind of experience because however much I will, you know, yammer on and explain to you what it feels like to be under this kind of bombardment, I think it's very hard if you're not here to |
| 1:15.2 | kind of understand what that means. And I think we talked a little bit about that kind of |
| 1:19.2 | the frequency and how frequent it is this time. There are basically two differences between what |
| 1:23.7 | we're going through now and what we went through in June, the first war with Iran then. |
| 1:29.3 | One is, again, the missile novels are limited in size, but they're more frequent. |
| 1:34.3 | So you will find yourself, you know, during the nighttime every kind of hour, hour and a half, |
| 1:38.7 | having to go either to a shelter, a public shelter, or a shelter in your building, or a safe room, or anywhere else. |
| 1:44.3 | And the other thing is that Chisbala has joined the fray, which didn't happen in June. |
