Satellite images give Novara Media's most-watched new upload its starting point: damaged gas infrastructure in Qatar, oil facilities in Oman and a desalination plant in Kuwait. The segment examines a Reuters investigation reporting that Iranian strikes inflicted more damage across the Gulf than had previously been disclosed.

"REVEALED: The MASSIVE Damage Iran Inflicted On Gulf States" reached roughly 320,000 views. Interview guest Sina Toossi, a senior fellow at the Center for International Policy, connects restrictions on reporting the damage to Gulf governments' need to project security. His argument is economic as well as military: foreign investment and international transit depend on confidence in the region's stability.

Across 15 uploads, Novara moved between immediate developments and longer conversations. Its Saudi Arabia fighter-jet edition of Novara Live, the France protest broadcast and an excerpt of Aaron Bastani's discussion with Ashok Kumar about the Green Party's Zionism motion carry the strongest daily viewing momentum right now.

The subscriber audience held steady, while daily views are running a little below the channel's usual pace. Among nearby political-commentary channels, Trish Regan is seeing elevated daily viewing; Pod Save America is having a slower spell.

There was room beyond the live-news cycle, too. Steven Methven sat down with Omar El Akkad to discuss Western responsibility, accountability and the writer's book One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This. Richard Hames took a longer historical route with Rebecca Karl: their China conversation follows the Opium Wars, the Taiping Rebellion and the upheavals that culminated in the 1949 revolution.
