Description
Journalist and lawyer Dimitri Lascaris just returned from Iran, where he traveled from Tehran to the Strait of Hormuz, witnessing firsthand the impact of the US-Israeli war.
From hospitals treating the wounded to the world’s most important oil chokepoint, Lascaris saw a side of this war that Western media is barely covering.
The Strait of Hormuz is one of the most critical waterways on earth, responsible for a massive share of global energy flows. But today, it has become a frontline in a rapidly escalating conflict. Trump says only with its opening would he consider a ceasefire.
In this episode of Dispatches, Rania Khalek speaks with Dimitri Lascaris about:
What he witnessed inside Iran during wartime
The situation on the ground at the Strait of Hormuz
Civilian infrastructure and the human toll of the war
Whether US and Israeli actions constitute war crimes
How Iran is responding and what comes next
This is a rare, on-the-ground account from inside a country under attack.
