Last year's anti-tourism protests in Europe drew global headlines - and this summer, the tensions are back.

Earlier this week, locals in Spain shot water guns at visitors, saying a flood of summer tourists is driving up housing costs in their cities and pushing out the locals.

However, many residents and businesses are concerned that tourists may be frightened away.

Iran has warned that an attack by the US would bring hell to the Middle East. In an interview with the BBC the country’s deputy foreign minister Saeed Khatibzadeh warned President Trump against involvement in a war that was "not his war".

The White House said Donald Trump will decide in the next two weeks whether the US will become directly involved in the Iran-Israel conflict. It said he still believed there is a "substantial chance of negotiations”.

Israel has attacked Iran’s nuclear sites and other targets leading to a state of war between the two countries. Iran has responded by firing thousands of missiles at Israel.

The Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has said his war aim is to prevent Iran building a nuclear weapon. Iran insists its nuclear programme is peaceful and solely intended to produce nuclear energy.

Russia's President Putin has offered to mediate between the warring sides. Russia is an ally of the Iranian regime.

Former PhD student Zhenhao Zou has been given a life sentence with at least 24 years in prison for the rape of 10 women in London and China.

The 28-year-old Chinese national kept a 'trophy box' in a wardrobe containing jewellery and clothing belonging to the women he raped.

Zou would meet women socially, or through social media, and then take them back to his flat where he would ply them with drink laced with drugs, according to Met Police Commander Kevin Southworth.

The Prosecutor in the case said that 24 further complainants have come forward, while the police said other victims have not been identified.

According to the Washington DC-based group Human Rights Activists, around 585 people have been killed in Iran by Israel’s attacks since the conflict started last Friday.

The Israeli military says Iran has launched 450 ballistic missiles and hundreds of drones since Friday, killing 24 people in Israel.

US President Donald Trump has approved plans to attack Iran, but has not made a final decision on whether to strike the country, the BBC's US partner CBS reports.

The US president held off from initiating strikes in case Iran agreed to abandon its nuclear programme, a senior intelligence source told CBS.

Trump is reportedly considering a US strike on Fordo, an underground uranium enrichment facility in Iran.

Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Wednesday rejected Trump's demand for unconditional surrender.
