Newshour

Expires today 10:00pm

An armed man has been shot dead after entering the secure perimeter of US President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence in Florida, the Secret Service has said. We speak to a local reporter who has been at Mar-a-Lago several times. Also on the programme: there has been a second day of protests at Iranian universities with crowds chanting, "Death to the dictator"; and the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026 come to an end following 16 days of sporting delight.
