The Israeli army's former top lawyer has been remanded in custody over leaking a video which allegedly shows Israeli soldiers torturing a Palestinian prisoner.

The Israeli army's former top lawyer has been remanded in custody over leaking a video which allegedly shows Israeli soldiers torturing a Palestinian prisoner. We hear from a former IDF general, and from an Israeli NGO that works with Palestinian prisoners.

Also in the programme: a protestor in Tanzania on the post-election violence he's witnessed; and following tales of heroism during the mass stabbing attack on a train here in England two days ago, we hear from a man who in 2019 confronted a knife-wielding murderer on London Bridge.
