TRUMP100

A bunker. A scenario. A group of former senior ministers, military chiefs and other experts. Russia knows our weaknesses – but do you?   
Sky News' security and defence editor Deborah Haynes presents The Wargame – a major new five-part series from Sky News and Tortoise, set in the near future. 

Launching 10th June.

Donald Trump has been back on the phone with Vladimir Putin, reportedly chatting for over an hour. But with no signs of an immediate peace deal with Ukraine following the call, Mark Stone and our Moscow correspondent Ivor Bennett discuss the potential repercussions.  

Separately, on Wednesday Trump announced a new travel ban to the US from 12 countries, and an additional seven countries whose nationals face partial travel restrictions.

And we've had some new numbers from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, which has analysed Trump's "big beautiful" tax bill and found it would add $2.4trn to the US national debt over the next decade.

Hopes of a ceasefire in Gaza stalled over the weekend as Hamas called for changes to the US Israel peace deal, but could the US have done more to end the war sooner?

He tells Mark he believes Israel has 'without a doubt' committed war crimes in the fighting since 6 October 2023. Israel has strongly denied claims it has committed war crimes.
