About this episode
President Trump has threatened to inflict major military punishment against Yemen's Houthi rebels following their strikes on oil tankers in the Red Sea. Oil prices hit $100 a barrel for the first time since May as fears grow over global energy supplies. We speak to the UN's Yemen envoy Hans Grundberg who is concerned about the prospect of escalation in Yemen. Also in the programme; The BBC visits Iran school where a strike killed 120 children as questions remain whether the US military is responsible; and the European Union has fined the US tech titan Google one-billion-dollars for flouting anti- trust regulations.(Picture: A person walks past a display of Houthi-made mock missiles and drones at a square in Sana'a, Yemen, 23 July 2026.
