The recent wave of price hikes and the suspected Israeli drone strike in Beirut that killed a senior Hamas official gave our nation’s talking heads a lot to talk about last night.

The price hikes rallied up the pundits: Kelma Akhira’s Lamees El Hadidi questioned why the hikes came without any warning and pointed to how this led to “fights in front of ticket counters” at train stations across the country. House Budget Committee Secretariat Abdelmoneim Emam took a more combative tone on Yahduth Fi Masr, telling viewers that the government’s methods to curb soaring prices have repeatedly failed, and asked “when will these hikes stop?” (Kelma Akhira | watch, runtime: 6:02 | 2:03) (Yahduth Fi Misr | watch, runtime: 5:56 | 5:01 | 4:24) (Ala Masouleety | watch, runtime: 1:09:50)

Our nation’s talking heads gave us all the latest updates — and opinions — on the assassination of Hamas’ deputy leader in a suspected Israeli drone strike in Beirut. A correspondent Al Qaherah News confirmed to Lamees El Hadidi that Israeli reconnaissance aircrafts were spotted in the southern suburb of Beirut, “surveilling the area weeks before the attack.” Sherif Amer emphasized that the attack follows “a comprehensive Israeli strategy” that they have been using since 1972 to take out their opponents using assassinations.
