What will happen after Donald Trump’s midnight deadline for Iran
to strike a deal?

The US president has issued a series of increasingly hardline
threats to Tehran to force it sue for peace and reopen the Strait
of Hormuz, from the complete demolition of all of its bridges and
power plants to destroying its entire civilisation.

Venetia Rainey is joined by senior foreign correspondent Sophia
Yan to discuss Trump’s latest ultimatum, the frantic peace talks
underway to avoid further escalation, and the possible impact on
Iranians of such a widespread campaign of destruction.

Plus, they discuss China’s fuel shipments to the Iranian regime,
the fallout from the latest attacks on the Gulf, and how Israel’s
invasion of southern Lebanon is heightening sectarian tensions
among local communities.
