Israel's defence minister says its military has killed Iran's security chief Ali Larijani in an airstrike. In the US, a top counterterrorism official has resigned over the ongoing conflict. We speak to our correspondents across the world to hear the latest, and speak to political reporters in the US. Medical sources in Afghanistan have told the BBC they've received more than 100 bodies following a Pakistani airstrike on a drug treatment centre. Pakistan denies striking the facility deliberately. We speak to our reporters from both countries. The first weekend of this year's all-female F1 Academy racing series has shone the spotlight on the growing role of women in the industry. We speak to some of the people involved. Presenter: Rahul Tandon Photo: Ali Larijani holds a press conference after a meeting with Lebanese Parliament Speaker in Beirut, Lebanon, 13 August 2025.
