Rob Malley says Iran-Israel war is a "powder keg already blown up"

Israel and Iran have continued to attack each other throughout the night; at least ten people were killed in Israel. Various sites including residential buildings have been struck in Tehran. Iranian media say the number of civilian casualties is still unknown. Today was the day when US and Iran negotiators were supposed to meet in Oman to discuss Tehran's nuclear programme. Those talks have now been cancelled. Celia Hatton spoke to Rob Malley, a lead negotiator of the Iran nuclear deal during the Obama era, known as JPOAC - Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action.
