UN Security Council meets on Iran

Iran's ambassador to the United Nations, Amir-Saeid Iravani, has called the US attacks on the Iranian nuclear facilities blatant aggression.

The United Nations Security Council has been meeting in emergency session to discuss the deteriorating security situation in the Middle East after the US bombed Iran's nuclear facilities.

Following the weekend's attacks by the USA, officials in Tehran say that they would never surrender to bullying, as diplomatic efforts are made to head off any potentially retaliatory actions against US targets.

And we'll hear from Brad Lander, the leading New York politician who was arrested and handcuffed last week while trying to help someone detained by federal immigration officers.
