Max Pearson introduces correspondent reports on the Occupied Territories, Russia, the Mediterranean Sea and Somalia.

After violent clashes in Jenin earlier this month, an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal seems as remote as it has ever been. And with some Arab states now normalising relations with Israel, observers ask: is this is a sign that some countries will want to move on from trying to negotiate an end to this decades-long conflict? The 91热爆 International Editor Jeremy Bowen hears one view that international support for a Palestinian state might eventually fade, as it has done for the once ubiquitous Free Tibet movement in recent years. But, he says, anger and hopelessness are driving a new generation of Palestinians, who are not concerned whether or not the world is on their side.

Their failed mutiny shook Russia. But what has happened to the Wagner mercenary group and its leader Yevgeny Prigozhin following last month鈥檚 short-lived rebellion? The deal that ended the crisis was supposed to see Wagner disbanded and Yevgeny Prigozhin move to Belarus. Weeks on, the camp in Belarus prepared for Wagner fighters is apparently empty. And not only is Yevgeny Prigozhin a free man, it鈥檚 now emerged he was sitting at a table with President Putin just a few days after his supposed march on Moscow. And as Sarah Rainsford discovered, Wagner is still recruiting new members - but, she asks, could President Putin be biding his time?

Almost 2000 people have died so far this year trying to cross the Mediterranean to reach Europe. But as Alice Cuddy found on a ship that had just rescued young migrants from The Gambia, the deaths do not seem to have deterred desperate teenage boys and young men from embarking on the long, dangerous journey to seek a better life.

Somalia has a large diaspora that fled the civil war of the 1980s and 90s and the instability and famine that have afflicted the country since. At least 100,000 live in Britain - many are second-generation Somalis who have never been to Somalia. Among them is Soraya Ali - until now. So what was it like to go back 'home'?
