United States Defence Secretary, Pete Hegseth, has provided further detail on the US attack on Iran over the weekend.

According to Mr Hegseth, the Trump Administration "devastated the Iranian nuclear program" but noted, "the operation did not target Iranian troops, or the Iranian people."

Meanwhile, Iran's Supreme National Security Council is considering whether to close the Strait of Hormuz in response to the US' bombing raids on its nuclear program, according to Iran's Press TV.

Guest: Professor Seyed Hossein Mousavian, previously served on Iran's nuclear negotiating team with the European Union and the International Atomic Energy Agency in the early 2000s and a former Iranian Ambassador to Germany, now a visiting research collaborator at Princeton University in the US.
Producer: Anne Barker
