Netanyahu: Israel has a duty to retaliate against Iran

In a recorded message broadcast on Saturday night the Israeli Prime Minister said Israel has a ‘right and a duty’ to respond to Iran’s missile attacks of 1 October. Benjamin Netanyahu also claimed Israel had made progress in the war.

Also on the programme: Donald Trump holds a rally with Elon Musk at the site of his attempted assassination in Butler, Pennsylvania; and we hear from the journalists working on the BBC’s emergency broadcasting service in Gaza.

Joining presenter Julian Worricker to discuss all this and more are Noga Tarnopolsky, an Israel and Palestine reporter in Jerusalem and Amjad Iraqi, a senior editor at 972 magazine.
