Some 200 people are still being held captive by Hamas since its surprise attack in Israel, while the Israeli military prepares for a potential ground invasion of Gaza. Jeff Semple gets an inside look at how a volunteer team of high-tech experts are helping track down the hostages. As the bloodshed between Israel and Hamas rages on, the Israeli military is also exchanging fire with Hezbollah, an Iran-backed Lebanese militant group, across the Lebanon-Israel border. Crystal Goomansingh visited the area to speak with people who are desperate to leave because of the violence, while others insist on staying put. More than two million Palestinians, including hundreds of Canadians, are stuck in the Gaza Strip, cut off from fuel, food, water and medicine. Dawna Friesen speaks with Mansour Shouman, who moved to Gaza from Calgary with his wife and give children in 2022, about how he and his family are coping, what he’s been telling his children about the crisis, and what he wants to tell the Canadian government. In a prime time address, U.S. President Joe Biden stressed the importance of America’s support of Israel and Ukraine’s defence efforts. The takeaways from Biden’s speech, and why more military aid for both Ukraine and Israel can’t be delivered yet. Plus, an examination into a lack of competition. The consequences for consumers, and how to fix it. And Canada’s king and queen of ice dancing have been enshrined forever: the high honours for Olympic gold medallists Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir.
