James Comey, the former FBI director, indicted

Mr Comey is accused of lying to Congress and obstructing justice.

America's Department of Justice has indicted the former FBI director, James Comey, it comes days after Donald Trump said he should be prosecuted. Mr Comey is accused of lying to Congress and obstructing justice. Mr Trump has commented on social media and called Mr Comey 'one of the worst human beings'. We look at the legal challenges in this case.

Reports from the US quote president Donald Trump commenting positively on the prospects for a peace deal in Gaza. It follows a meeting with the Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who is due to speak at the United Nations General Assembly later today. Meanwhile it's been reported that a proposal to establish a transitional authority to run Gaza would include the involvement of the former British Prime Minister Sir Tony Blair. We get a view from Israel.

And we hear from a resident of Gaza City, he's decided to stay in the city despite the escalating war and ground invasion of Gaza City.
