US congresswoman rejects Israel's offer of visit
The US Congresswoman, Rashida Tlaib, has said she will not go ahead with a visit to Israel to see her grandmother.
We'll talk to our reporter in Washington about the decision by the US congresswoman Rashida Tlaib to reject Israel's offer to allow her to make a "humanitarian" visit to her grandmother in the occupied West Bank. She's said she could not comply with the "oppressive conditions" being imposed.
We also get reaction from Greenland to reports that President Donald Trump has spoken about buying the island. Greenland's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has tweeted: "We're open for business, not for sale".
We speak to the US couple whose story went viral online after they posted before and after photos of beating meth addiction.
