The US and Iran are preparing for peace talks in Pakistan this weekend, as a two-week ceasefire deal for the Middle East appears to be largely holding. That's despite conflicted accounts as to whether Lebanon was included in the truce - with Israeli strikes earlier this week killing more than 300 people - according to the Lebanese Health Ministry. Meanwhile, there has been no sign Iran has lifted its effective blockade of the Strait of Hormuz - with Israel's ongoing attacks on Lebanon cited as a key sticking point. GUEST: Richard Marles, Acting Prime Minister and Minister for Defence PRODUCER: Isadora Bogle
