    Scholasticide: Erasing Gaza's Past, Present and Future| Dr Abdel Razzaq Takriti

    Gaza has long been recognised as one of the most educated and highly literate societies in the region, despite decades of Israeli occupation, blockade, repeated military assaults, and displacement. Palestinians, including those in Gaza, have often been described as among the world’s most highly educated refugee populations. In this episode of Falasteeniya, Palestine Deep Dive’s Hala Hanina is joined by Dr Abdel Razzaq Takriti, Associate Professor of History and Arab-American Educational Foundation Chair in Arab Studies at Rice University, to examine the systematic destruction of Gaza’s education system. Together, they explore the impact of the devastation on Gaza’s universities, schools, libraries, archives, and cultural institutions, and consider what the future of education in Palestine may look like in its aftermath. 👉 Support us by becoming a paid subscriber from as little as £1 a month.

    EXPOSED: What Andy Burnham Really Thinks About Palestine | Matt Kennard

    Who is the UK’s PM-in-waiting Andy Burnham? And what does his political record tell us about the next British government? In this episode of The Deep Dive, Ahmed is joined by investigative journalist Matt Kennard to examine Andy Burnham’s political career, from his time under New Labour and his vote for the Iraq War, to his positions on Israel, Palestine, the NHS and the future direction of British politics. Kennard reflects on why Burnham’s record matters more than his public image, and what his potential leadership could mean for issues including Gaza, foreign policy and the wider political landscape in Britain. The conversation also explores the state of British democracy, the decline of traditional party politics, the rise of the Green Party, and whether a new political movement can emerge outside the Labour–Conservative system. 👉 Support us by becoming a paid subscriber from as little as £1 a month.

    Who Are the Palestinians? | Deep Dive with William Dalrymple

    What do historical records, ancient texts, archaeology, and DNA research actually tell us about Palestinians? In this episode of The Deep Dive, Ahmed Alnaouq is joined by historian and bestselling author William Dalrymple to explore the deep history of the Palestinian people, which he argues have too often been erased from mainstream narratives and the documented history of Palestine.  Together, they discuss how history is taught in Britain, the origins of the name Palestine, the continuity of the people who have lived on the land for thousands of years, and why understanding the past is essential to understanding the present. 👉 Support us by becoming a paid subscriber from as little as £1 a month.

    How Palestine Action Shook Britain: Co-Founder Huda Ammori Goes On the Record

    In this exclusive conversation, Palestine Action co-founder Huda Ammori sits down for her first in-person interview in two years.  Speaking to Matt Kennard of Palestine Deep Dive, Ammori reflects on the extraordinary journey of the direct action movement she launched in 2020, from its campaign against Israeli weapons manufacturer Elbit Systems to its proscription by the UK government in 2025. Ammori discusses the events leading up to the ban, the targeting of RAF Brize Norton, the government's use of terrorism legislation, and why she believes the attempt to suppress Palestine Action has instead generated unprecedented public support and drawn greater attention to Britain's role in the Israeli genocide in Gaza. Although the High Court ruled in February 2026 that the Palestine Action ban had breached the right to protest and had been incorrectly taken by ministers, the Court of Appeal earlier this month upheld the proscription which Ammori says she intends to appeal to the UK Supreme Court. As legal challenges continue and new groups emerge to carry forward similar tactics, Ammori argues that the movement's core message has reached further than ever before.
