Welcome to The Times of Israel’s Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what’s happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world.
Today is Day 104 of the war. Editor David Horovitz joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for a one-on-one conversation.
President Isaac Herzog spoke today at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, next to a photo of one-year-old hostage Kfir Bibas. Herzog said that Israelis are not able to think about a peace process with the Palestinians right now. Horovitz weighs in.
In a recent op-ed Horovitz writes, “More than 100 days after October 7, Israel’s vital military effort to destroy Hamas — to prevent it carrying out more massacres, to deter our other enemies, and to enable Israelis to safely return to border areas and sleep soundly in our beds everywhere — has lost momentum.” We hear why.
