The Israeli military says it killed the head of an elite Hezbollah unit along with other commanders in an airstrike in Beirut.

We get reaction from a Lebanese member of parliament and from a former US ambassador to Beirut at the time of the 2006 Lebanon war.

Also on the programme: the millions of Ukrainians suffering from mental health issues because of the war; and a new blood test that could be an early warning of diabetes and obesity in children.
