    How the conflict in the Middle East might put Donald Trump in the White House
    Oct 12 2024
    Sky News and NBC News have joined forces for a new podcast - The World with Richard Engel and Yalda Hakim.

    For the first episode, Yalda is in Jerusalem and Richard is covering events in Lebanon.

    They discuss what they are seeing and hearing on both sides of the border as the conflict appears to be "spiralling into an abyss".

    And with the US election now four weeks away, they ask whether the economic and military consequences of the war could determine where it’s Donald Trump or Kamala Harris in the Oval Office.
