Israel strikes Iran overnight

A review of the week with the latest news.

Israel launches airstrikes overnight as the US urges Iran to refrain from counter attacking. The attacks allegedly targeted military targets and were a response to the Iranian missile attack on Israel earlier in October.

Also on the programme: Former Soviet Republic Georgia decides if it wants to be closer to the European Union or Russia, and; Beyonce gives Kamala Harris鈥檚 campaign a sprinkle of celebrity.

Joining Rebecca Kesby to discuss all this and more are Shachi Kurl, President of Angus Reid Institute, a Canadian public opinion research organization based in Vancouver where she joins us from, and Jeremy Shapiro, Research Director of the European Council on Foreign Relations in Washington DC.
