She lies awake worrying about the present and the future. I can honestly say I haven't slept for several nights and days in a row. I try to relax by taking very strong painkillers so I can sleep. The anxiety is so intense that it has affected my body. When I think about the future and imagine those conditions I truly don't know what to do.

Meidät rauhoittivat yhdellä alueella, alueen liittyvällä paikoilleen. He tappoivat polttoaineita ja tyhjyä. Nämä ovat pelot sydämen kohdalla. Nämä ovat sydämen kohdalla ja yläpuolella. Tämä on tyhjyys. Tämä on sydämen kohdalla. Tämä on sydämen kohdalla. Menam on vanha poliittinen kylmä. Täällä näkyy X-ray, jolla on tullut sydämen kohdalla.

He were wounded by regime gunfire in the January anti-government demonstrations. Then the state killed thousands of its own people. And the threat of that violence is ever present. Benham is now suffering from depression and post-traumatic stress disorder. Once you see how easily your life can be threatened, that a simple incident or a twist of fate can mean death or survival, after that your life no longer holds the same value for you.

Ja tämän kokemuksen jälkeen sinun pitää huolehtia vähemmän itseäsi. Minä en huolehdu ennen kuin olemme iloinen maailmassa, katsomassa taistelua, jonka olemme käsitteleet iloisessa maassa, ja rauhoittamassa sitä. Mutta Iranissa, yksi kuukausi sitten maailmalle, iloinen ilo näyttää hyvin kauempaa.

That report by Fergal Keen. Another country hard hit by the ongoing war is Lebanon. Israel is stepping up attacks on the Lebanese capital, Beirut. It says it's targeting senior members of the Iran-backed armed group Hezbollah.

More than 1300 people have died so far during this conflict, according to the Lebanese authorities, and a million have been forced to leave their homes. Many of them have now spent weeks in government shelters with little or no prospect of returning home. James Menendez has been speaking to Amy Pope, director general of the International Organization for Migration, which is linked to the United Nations. She's in Lebanon at the moment.

So the situation is quite grave. There are over one million people who have been displaced in the last month. If you think back to the conflict that happened at the end of 2024, it's a significantly higher number. And that's coming on top of people who had been displaced from that conflict and had not been able to go home before. On top of that, it's coming at a time when the stress on the humanitarian system to respond is greater than ever.

Many, many governments have cut their humanitarian support for people in need. The resources to support even some of the most basic needs are just not there. And so that confluence of impact is serious. And then that lack of funding essentially, what does that mean in practice for those who have had to flee their homes?

It means that people don't necessarily have the shelter they need. They don't necessarily have the food or the clothing or even the most basic baby formulas they need. The government has asked for a list of just the most basic life-saving support to support those whose homes have been destroyed, whose communities are no longer safe to stay in, who are now seeking refuge primarily in places like Beirut, which is already...

ja jossa rauhoitumiset ovat jo melko rajoittaneet.

Do you see any of that extra help that's needed coming down the pipeline? We hope so. This is why it's so important to tell the story of the people that we're speaking to. It's families who are sleeping on floors. We are hearing from people who've lost their livelihoods, who don't have any future support. Without some level of assistance, this could become a much more serious crisis. The displacement doesn't stop just when the bombing stops.

At that point people have to look and often rebuild their homes, determine whether or not there's anything to go back to. So the repercussions of what's happening could last for years. And that's the point. I mean, many of these people won't be able to go back in the near future. I mean, Israel said that it's going to expand what it calls its security buffer zone, and it stretches quite a long way into Lebanon. It also says it's going to raise some of the villages along the border.

As I say, those people won't have homes to go back to. So what happens to them? Well, that's the most alarming factor that we're dealing with right now. This could be a very prolonged displacement. As you can imagine, prolonged displacement actually

Still to come in this podcast. He is full of his usual vim and vigor. In some ways he's actually getting more healthy. The ancient tortoise who's not dead after all.

I'm Tristan Redman, one of the hosts of the Global Story podcast from the BBC. How would the US invade Iran? Different options are on the table, but the Pentagon has wargamed this for years, and our guest today was in the room for many of them. What are Donald Trump's remaining military options? Listen to the Global Story on BBC.com or wherever you get your podcasts.

This is the Global News Podcast. After five years of military rule, Myanmar will have a new president from today, although he's not really new. General Minh Ong Lain led the 2021 coup that ousted Myanmar's democratically elected government and triggered a civil war. He's just stepped down from his post as top military commander and is taking over as president.

The move is widely seen as an attempt by the military regime to win more legitimacy. Meanwhile, inside the country, the civil war rages on, with daily airstrikes carried out on large areas under the control of opposition forces. Our Southeast Asia correspondent Jonathan Head sent this report from Yangon.

He's an unprepossessing figure, short and stout with blinking bespectacled eyes. Yet today General Min Aung Hlaing is by far the most powerful man in Myanmar, despite having led a catastrophic coup that tipped his country into civil war and being accused in international courts of genocide and crimes against humanity. They hold this parade every year in the strange, citadel-like capital of Nipidor.
