: US President Donald Trump confirmed the launch of "decisive and powerful" air strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen, killing at least twenty-three people. Trump also warned Iran against supporting the Houthis and stated that the strikes were in response to the armed group's attacks on shipping in the Red Sea. The Houthis claim their actions were because of Israel's war in Gaza and have vowed to respond to the US strikes. Journalist Iona Craig, an expert on Yemen, joins the programme to give more insights. We also hear from a human rights activist in Yemen's capital, Sanaa.

Also in the programme: Massive turnout in Serbia's capital, Belgrade, marking the largest protest since anti-corruption rallies began four months ago: Guy De Launey, our Balkans correspondent, reports from Belgrade. And we discuss ongoing efforts for a ceasefire in Ukraine and possible minerals deal between Washington and Kyiv.

Joining presenter Rebecca Kesby are historian and journalist Christopher de Bellaigue, and Samantha de Bendern, an associate fellow at the Chatham House foreign relations think-tank specialising in Russia.
