Our podcast bringing you compelling stories from the Middle East, North Africa, Asia and beyond.

In this episode of The New Arab Voice podcast, we examine the implications of the Bahrain-UAE-Israel normalisation deal and the aftermath of the fire that devastated the Moria refugee camp.

Tune in as we analyse Bahrain's move to join the United Arab Emirates in normalising relations with Israel last week. US President Donald Trump announced similar US-brokered deals with "five or six" other unknown Arab nations.

With hundreds of Palestinians demonstrating against what they perceived to be Arab leaders selling out their cause for narrow geopolitical interests, Emiratis and Bahrainis have also expressed dissatisfaction with their governments’ decision, risking arrest in two countries with human rights records deplored by rights groups.

We will also be covering the desperation of thousands of asylum seekers on the Greek island of Lesbos who fled for their lives as a huge fire ripped through the camp of Moria, the country's largest and most notorious migrant facility. Hear from experts on the ground and refugees who are struggling with another threat to their survival.
