Israel strikes Iran's nuclear sites

Available for over a year

Pascale Harter introduces stories from Iran, Israel, India and Canada. Israel's decision to launch strikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites has brought more uncertainty to an already volatile region. Several hundred Iranian civilians have been killed in the attacks and thousands more have fled Tehran. Jiyar Gol has spoken to people from across Iran, revealing a country - and a regime - under pressure. Meanwhile Iran has retaliated with its own strikes against Israel and has at times overwhelmed the country's 'iron dome' defence system. Hugo Bachega travelled to the town of Rishon LeZion, which was hit by an Iranian missile in the early morning, and speaks to locals about Israel's decision to instigate a new conflict. When Air India flight 171 crashed into a residential suburb of the Indian city of Ahmedabad, Zoya Mateen reported from the scene in the immediate hours after the disaster. In the local hospital, she met families still holding out for good news. And finally, the BBC's diplomatic correspondent James Landale has been in Canada where the G7 summit of world leaders gathered this week - and from which Donald Trump made an early exit. He reflects on the fractures beginning to show in these multilateral gatherings and what that could mean for future summits (Image: Smoke rises from Tehran locations targeted by Israel.
