Description

It's day five of the US-Israel war with Iran as US–Israeli air strikes have continued across Iran and residents in Tehran describe an empty, unsettled capital. The Pentagon has released footage of a US submarine sinking an Iranian warship, with Sri Lankan authorities saying 80 bodies have so far been found. US military leaders warn operations will move progressively deeper into Iranian territory, while Iran says it had no choice but to respond to the US and Israel's joint operation. Israel says it has intercepted new missiles launched from Iran and a three-day funeral ceremony for Iran's ex-Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has been postponed. 00:00 - Developments on day five  00:50 - Life on the ground in Tehran 03:17 - Ayatollah Ali Khamenei funeral ceremony postponed 03:52 - What the US administration knows about Iran school strike 05:16 - US submarine sinks Iranian warship 05:37 - Drone attack on US consulate in Dubai 05:54 - How Iraq is trying to stay out of the crossfire  08:11 - Trump threatens trade embargo on Spain 09:12 - HMS Dragon to sail to eastern Mediterranean  10:15 - Analysis from BBC News International Editor Jeremy Bowen   Subscribe here: http://bit.ly/1rbfUog For more news, analysis and features visit: www.bbc.com/news #BBCNews

It's kind of like Trump kicking a hornet's nest and saying I'm not going to stop kicking the hornet's nest till you stop stinging me

The way Kaveh poetically described the situation and city landscape. I’ve heard many good things about Iranian people but the thing that stuck in my mind the most was how well educated and well read they are. It seems to be true.

Do you really think when a war ship is in docks for maintenance all live ammunition is kept on board? One reason why the ship is not in position.
