President Trump's plan to impose tariffs
We look at what tariffs could mean for the global economy.
Sticking to one of his election promises, Donald Trump says he is considering imposing a 10% tariff on imports of Chinese-made goods as soon as 1 February. We speak to our business correspondent in New York about what this could mean globally and for the US economy.
We speak to the 大象传媒's China Global Unit about the reaction in China.
President Trump has also told President Putin to make Ukraine deal "now" or face tariffs and sanctions. It comes as Western officials say about 1,000 North Korean troops have been killed so far in Russia's Kursk region, where Ukraine launched a major incursion last year. Our security correspondent gives details.
The ceasefire between Israel and Hamas has stopped fighting in Gaza for now but over in the occupied West Bank, Israeli security forces are continuing what they call a major counterterrorism operation. We have the latest on today's developments.
We also hear from a resident in Gaza, and we bring together three Israelis for their reflections on the ceasefire deal and what they expect to happen next.
Presenter: Luke Jones.
