60 Minutes, May 12, 2024, CBS, “A Week in Israel and A Web of Intrigue”
Lesley Stahl Reports on the Impact of Security Threats in Israel, While Sharyn Alfonsi Interviews Christopher Ahn in the Double-Length Segment “A Web of Intrigue”
This Sunday, 12 May 2024, 60 Minutes will air two compelling segments: “A Week in Israel” and “A Web of Intrigue.” The former will see Lesley Stahl reporting on the heightened security threats in Israel, while the latter, a double-length segment, features Sharyn Alfonsi interviewing Christopher Ahn, the man at the centre of a legal battle after attempting to aid North Korean embassy workers in defecting.
A Week in Israel: Correspondent Lesley Stahl provides on-the-ground reporting from Israel, offering the latest updates on the country’s heightened security threats across three fronts: Gaza in the south, Hezbollah in the north, and Iran in the east. This segment provides a timely overview of the consequential developments since the October 7, 2023, terror attacks.
A Web of Intrigue: Correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi interviews Christopher Ahn, a former U.S. Marine, in Southern California. Ahn finds himself entangled in legal hurdles both domestically and abroad after a daring 2019 mission. He worked with Cheollima Civil Defense to aid North Korean embassy workers in defecting in Madrid, and now Spain seeks his extradition. Ahn details his motivations and the complexities of his situation, with the added concern of the FBI warning that his life is in danger.
“A Week in Israel” and “A Web of Intrigue” promise to deliver insightful and impactful stories, shedding light on pressing global issues and the individuals caught in the crossfire.
60 Minutes airs Sundays at 7:00–8:00 PM ET/PT on the CBS Television Network.
