Israel insists Lebanon is not covered by America's ceasefire deal with Iran. The ceasefire also appears to have been breached in Lebanon, Kuwait, UAE and Iran. Lyse Doucet and Tom Bateman assess the fragility of the ceasefire. Hugo Bachega reports from the scene of strikes in Beirut and Professor Margaret MacMillan and Lord Dannatt discuss whether this moment marks a turning point for the world order.
