'Frozen on October 7': Why Israel hasn't moved on

Three years after October 7, the Middle East that emerged from the attacks looks very different from the one that existed before them.

In this special Global Roaming roundtable, Geraldine Doogue, Laura Tingle, Latika Bourke and Hamish Macdonald examine how the Hamas attacks of October 7, 2023, and the war that followed have reshaped Israel, Palestine and the wider region.

They discuss the trauma that still defines Israeli society, the unresolved questions around security failures on the day, and why many Israelis remain focused on accountability for what happened.

The conversation also explores Gaza's future, the decline of Hamas's leadership, and whether new governance plans backed by regional and international actors could eventually create a path forward.

Plus, the role of Iran, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates and Turkey in a region whose balance of power is still shifting.
