Israeli Prime Minister tells UN to withdraw from south Lebanon

The Israeli military says that two soldiers have been severely wounded with multiple soldiers evacuated to hospital.

The Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu has made a direct appeal to the UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to remove UN peacekeepers from areas in south Lebanon where Israeli forces are fighting Hezbollah. Our reporter is with Israeli troops as they enter a Hezbollah-controlled village in southern Lebanon. We also hear from Jerusalem and Tel Aviv.

Also on the programme: We revisit the 1920s jazz-scene in Berlin, before the Nazis; and we hear from the US campaign trail in Las Vegas.
