US launches 'heavy' strikes on Iran

from NewsHour · host BBC

The US military says it has completed a "heavy wave" of strikes against Iran in retaliation for Tuesday's attempted ballistic missile attacks on American forces. Also on the programme, a teenager who travelled from Norway to the UK to carry out a "hit" for a Swedish organised crime group has been found guilty of conspiracy to murder; and, why K-Pop sensation BTS are boycotting the next year's Grammys.
