Tensions high in Iran as bombing victims remembered
Iran is holding a day of mourning for the nearly 100 victims of the bombing of a memorial event in Kerman this week.
Two explosions at a memorial event for an Iranian military commander have killed 95 people - Iran's supreme leader has promised a harsh response to the explosions at a cemetery in the city of Kerman.
In Lebanon the leader of Hezbollah has also vowed action following Tuesday's attack which killed a senior figure in the Palestinian militant group Hamas.
And we hear from Japan where the death toll from the earthquake has now passed 70.
