The deputy leader of Hezbollah, Naim Qassem has said he supports a call from Lebanon's parliament for a ceasefire with Israel. It's thought to be the first time Hezbollah has voiced such a view without tying it to a truce in Gaza. Israel's military says one of its latest air strikes on Beirut has killed another senior Hezbollah commander.
Also in the programme: An update on hurricane Milton as it approaches Tampa, Florida; and we hear from the 2024 winner of the Nobel prize in Physics.
