Iran claims to have targeted US warships with a new ballistic
missile for the first time in the war and has warned that its new
military doctrine involves pre-emptive strikes.

On today’s episode of Iran: the Latest, Venetia Rainey speaks to
journalist and author David Patrikarakos about the signal the
IRGC is sending Donald Trump by revealing the use of its upgraded
Qassem Basir missiles. They discuss the possible consequences of
the worsening economic conditions inside Iran as oil and petrol
prices rise, and why the regime is not as fractured as some
Western observers think.

Plus, the war in Yemen heats up after Houthi rebels launched a
massive wave of strikes on energy sites in Saudi Arabia, and the
UK’s Foreign Secretary Ed Miliband announces sanctions against
West Bank settlements, accusing Israel of ethnic cleansing. With
France and Canada unveiling similar measures, how will Trump
respond?
