People in southern Lebanon are living through a war within a war.
The war is of course the U-S Israeli campaign against Iran.
The war within Lebanon started with a series of strikes from the militant group Hezbollah.
They launched rockets and drones from Lebanon into Israel.
Israel responded with strikes in Lebanon.
And with that, a conflict that has flared on and off for decades reignited.

Newshour - US President says he’s still talking to Iran
President Trump says he's negotiating with Iran's leadership to end the war, while again threatening to strike its energy infrastructure. Iran has dismissed American demands as excessive and 'illogical'. We hear from a former US army officer on President Trump's military options.
Also in the programme: Israel's parliament passes a new law introducing the death penalty for terrorists. A critic of the law tells us it's framed just to target Palestinians; and a Sex Pistol celebrates the 50th anniversary of punk rock.
