Syria diplomacy fails - what next?

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

As Russia deploys new weapons in Syria Washington says it's not abandoning the search for peace. But what's the next step? We ask the State Department spokesman Mark Toner and we have a special report on children in Aleppo. Diane James resigns as leader of UKIP. And the president of the Philippines tells president Obama to go to hell -- and says he's making friends with Russia and China instead.
