On 8th April, Israel launched a wave of strikes against Lebanon hitting 100 targets in 10 minutes. According to the Lebanese authorities, more than 300 people, among them children, were killed on what has become known as 'Black Wednesday'. Israel says it was targeting Hezbollah, the Lebanese militia backed by Iran which has launched attacks against Israel. The BBC pieces together what happened on that deadly day. We look at the visit of Iran's Foreign Minister to Beijing. And the cruise ship with the hantavirus outbreak is to sail to Canary Islands. Presenters: James Copnall and Anne Soy.
