Protesters from the Iranian diaspora in the U.S. gathered in Washington, D.C. as the war in the Middle East broadens. Many say they are aligned with the U.S. and Israel and explain why they want to see regime change in Tehran.

In many ways, the conflict between Iran and the U.S. and Israel has been decades in the making. Ramtin Arablouei, host of NPR's podcast "Throughline," explains how.

Sudan has been at the center of a deadly and brutal war since April of 2023. Over 4 million people have fled the country since war broke out and at least 40,000 have been killed.

Throughline's Ramtin Arablouei speaks with Bill Burns and Cyrus Field IV on the makings of the first transatlantic cable.
