Syrian maternity hospital targeted by airstrike

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

After a maternity hospital in a rebel held area of Syria was hit by an airstrike, we hear from the charity, Save the Children, which supports the hospital. We look at why the bailed out Royal Bank of Scotland, and Italian banks, have performed poorly in the latest Europe-wide stress tests. And Alan Little reflects on the 1966 World cup victory asking what sort of nation was England fifty years ago? Photo: Damaged frontage of a maternity hospital, in Kafar Takharim, Idlib, Syria.
