As the year wraps up, we’re looking back at ten of the episodes that defined our year at The Take. This originally aired on November 8.

We’ve been receiving voice notes from our journalists in Gaza for just over a month, since Israel’s war on Gaza began following Hamas’s attack on October 7. They’ve endured a shortage of water, fuel, electricity, and food during constant Israeli bombardment. Today, what it means to report from Gaza one month into the war. 

In this episode:
