US and UK strike targets in Yemen
Interviews, news and analysis of the day鈥檚 global events.
Within the space of twenty four hours the United States has mounted airstrikes against Iranian-linked groups in Iraq, Syria and Yemen. The strikes against the Houthi movement in Yemen are part of an ongoing campaign to deter them from attacking shipping in the Red Sea. We hear from our correspondent in Baghdad, who attended a memorial killed in strikes, and reaction from an advisor to the Iraqi government.
International concern is growing about the decision of Senegal's president, Macky Sall, to indefinitely postpone elections that were due this month.
Also in the programme: Why big fat cars could soon pay a heavy price for parking in Paris; and Kim's Convenience, a Netflix Canadian-Korean hit and theatre favourite in London.
