Trump says Putin "will have to respond" to Ukraine drone attack

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

Donald Trump had a "good conversation" with his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin over the phone, the US President said in a post on Truth Social. President Trump wrote that Putin "will have to respond" to Ukraine's drone attack on Russian bombers, and therefore the call would not "lead to immediate peace". The US has vetoed a UN resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza, which the UK supported. As popstar Jessie J reveals her breast cancer diagnosis, we explore the increase in diagnoses among younger women. And it's been called the "biggest console launch of all time" - the Nintendo Switch 2 is released at midnight.
