Elsewhere, the past seven days have seen Israeli troops reach the centre of Rafah, in spite of warnings from Western allies to halt operations. We also look at why the AI Instagram image "All eyes on Rafah" has gone viral.

Meanwhile, the rules of engagement have changed in the Ukraine war. The US and Germany say their missiles can now be used against Russian military targets in Russian territory. President Vladimir Putin is threatening reprisals. 

It’s been a week that's seen a new prime minister selected to calm the chaos and crisis in Haiti. FRANCE 24's Catherine Norris Trent has spent two weeks reporting there, bringing us a rare insight into the reality in a capital under siege from within. 

And a week away from the EU election, our panel looks at the rise in Russian disinformation and the role of public broadcasters in countering the threat. 

Produced by Gavin Lee, Marion Lory and Elisa Amiri.

Note
  • It’s been an historic week in the US, where for the first time a former president has been convicted of a criminal offence. Donald Trump was found guilty on all charges in the so-called hush money trial on Thursday. Will this make any difference to his chances in the US presidential election?
