Iran says no negotiations until there’s a Lebanon ceasefire
Iran's parliament speaker says a ceasefire in Lebanon must happen 'before negotiations begin'.
Iran has set pre-conditions for the start of negotiations with the United States including a ceasefire in Lebanon. President Trump insisted that Iran had only one card to play in the negotiations - its chokehold on the Strait of Hormuz. Also on the programme: the four astronauts on board the Artemis mission are preparing to return to Earth. We speak to someone who went before them and we hear from a 13-year-old girl in Beirut who witnessed an Israeli strike on the city.
