Published

on



The US-Israel war with Iran has expanded across the Middle East. The Tehran-backed militant group, Hezbollah, which controls parts of Lebanon, has launched rockets into Israel, prompting Israeli forces to carry out air strikes on the capital, Beirut and southern parts of the country. Dozens of people have been killed and thousands have been displaced.

We speak to the BBC’s correspondent in Beirut, Lina Sinjab, about the impact of this conflict on the Lebanese people and their feelings towards Hezbollah.

Is Iran really trying to kill US President Donald Trump? | The Global Story

Published

on



Last month, US President Donald Trump secretly swapped planes via a catering truck as he left a Nato summit in Turkey. The elaborate ruse, first reported by the Washington Post, was in response to a possible threat from Iran.

But how serious were the US administration’s fears of an assassination attempt? And does the Iranian regime have the capability to carry out such an operation beyond its borders?

We speak to Parham Ghobadi, a senior reporter at the BBC’s Persian Service, and Dan Lamothe of the Washington Post, to understand more about what transpired on Air Force One, the history of Iran’s alleged assassination plots, and why the Iranian regime’s prime target might be its own citizens.
