Outside Source

Available for 29 days

Iran says it has rejected a US proposal for a ceasefire while calling for a "definitive" end to the war, state media reports. We have the latest on today's developments. Donald Trump has threatened bigger attacks on Iranian infrastructure if the Strait of Hormuz is not open by Tuesday. We get messages from those who voted for Mr Trump and speak to Iranians in America. India has asked border security officials to investigate the possibility of using crocodiles and snakes to deter illegal migration and smuggling across rivers that form the frontier with Bangladesh. Later today, history will be made as Nasa's Artemis mission flies around the far side of the moon - beating an earlier record set by the Apollo 13 mission. We have the latest episode from our space podcast "13 Minutes Presents: Artemis II". Presenter: Rahul Tandon.
