Israel strikes senior Hamas leaders in Qatar


Listen Later

Israel has carried out a strike in the Qatari capital, Doha, targeting the senior leadership of Hamas. They are said to have been holding a meeting to discuss the latest Gaza ceasefire proposal. It's reported that Khalil al-Hayya, the lead negotiator for Hamas, was among those targeted.

Also in the programme: The Nepalese Prime Minister has resigned after public outrage over the killing of 19 anti-corruption protesters on Monday. Demonstrations have continued with reports of fires in the parliament building and elsewhere.

US lawmakers release a copy of a "birthday book" given to the late convicted paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein in 2003, which includes a note allegedly signed by US President Donald Trump.

And we speak to Jung Chang- the Chinese author who wowed readers with her 1991 book Wild Swans.
