Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Cyprus News Digest 3rd October 2025
Q: Who could bring legal action in the event of someone being injured by the IDF?
It would be the state of nationality who should take action against Israel for violations of their citizens' rights, as they have a duty to protect their citizens abroad.
Cyprus News Digest 3rd October 2025
Q: Could individual IDF personnel be taken to court for causing the harm?
Technically, yes, depending on the jurisdiction in each country, and there are various options to investigate and prosecute Israeli soldiers.
Cyprus News Digest 18th April 2025
Q: Can you tell us exactly what's going on and why it's so important that that beautiful area at Bendakomo is not disturbed any further?
It's a critical habitat for the endangered Mediterranean monk seal, and the construction of a large-scale port poses significant ecological risks.
Cyprus News Digest 29th November 2024
Q: What do the remaining staff in Gaza actually do on a day-to-day basis, considering the lack of aid?
Despite challenges, approximately 5,000-6,000 staff work daily, providing essential health care, psychosocial support, and education where possible, despite severe resource limitations.
Cyprus News Digest 29th November 2024
Q: How easy is it for you to do the work that you were originally set up to do, particularly after all those accusations after October last year?
The work has become increasingly difficult as many donors paused funding due to allegations against some staff members, although investigations found little evidence to support the claims against the majority.
