The Israeli military says it killed the head of an elite Hezbollah unit along with other commanders in an airstrike in Beirut. We get reaction from a Lebanese member of parliament and from a former US ambassador to Beirut at the time of the 2006 Lebanon war. Also on the programme: the millions of Ukrainians suffering from mental health issues because of the war; and a new blood test that could be an early warning of diabetes and obesity in children.

“Post Reports” co-host Elahe Izadi and senior political reporter Aaron Blake chat with national political reporter Michael Scherer about all of this week’s political news. They also dig into how last week’s first – and perhaps only – debate between Vice President Kamala Harris and former president Donald Trump is shaping voters’ perceptions of the candidates. Today’s show was produced by Laura Benshoff and mixed by Sean Carter. It was edited by Lucy Perkins and Mary Jo Murphy. Subscribe to Aaron’s newsletter, The Campaign Moment, here .
