It鈥檚 been seven weeks since Hamas, which governs Gaza and is labelled a terrorist group by the US and many other western governments, murdered 1200 people in southern Israel. Israel鈥檚 response has left Gaza in ruins - an emphatic symbol of its military prowess.

But this war isn't only being fought on the ground. There鈥檚 a battle online to control the narrative and influence opinions on losses and suffering, rights and wrongs, facts and fake news. Host Katya Adler gets insight on the big picture from Lyse. And Marianna reveals the findings of her latest investigation into what you might be seeing about the war on TikTok, X and Instagram.
