- After Charlie Kirk’s death, will young people still vote Republican, and could the battle for his legacy cost Donald Trump crucial votes in this year’s midterm elections?
This week marks the start of hearings which will determine whether prosecutors have enough evidence to bring a murder case against Kirk’s alleged killer, Tyler Robinson.
The hearings have once again highlighted Charlie Kirk’s influence on young people and the battle among some Republicans to secure his legacy.
His death remains the subject of conspiracy theories among prominent far-right influencers such as Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens while candidates in this year’s midterm elections have used his endorsement in campaign ads.
But alongside this is also an administration that is increasingly unpopular with young people who voted for Trump in part to deal with cost-of-living pressures and a desire for no more wars.
Can the Republican Party ...

- The US and Iran again traded strikes in exchanges that continued into Thursday, as observers reported a "dramatic" drop in the number of ships travelling through the Strait of Hormuz.
The US says it hit 90 military targets, some near the Strait. Iran says 14 people have been killed in the past two days.
State media also reported that targets near the Bushehr nuclear power plant were hit, citing the deputy governor of the province. The US has not commented on the latest strikes.
Iran said it targeted US assets in Kuwait, Bahrain and Qatar in response. Later on Thursday, Tehran launched more strikes on sites in Kuwait, Jordan and Iraq, state-linked media reported.
Separately, huge crowds gathered as Iran's late supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was buried after six days of funeral events.

- Two years of conflict have devastated Gaza's infrastructure and its ability to feed itself. With food supplies unreliable and prices soaring, many Gazans have turned to urban farming - planting on rooftops, in home gardens, and next to tents.
At the heart of this struggle is a small seed bank run by Salama Mhanna and his daughter Hanadi.
Originally started in 2017 to preserve local crop varieties, their project was destroyed during the fighting in 2024. Now operating from a tent, they are starting again to provide farmers with the seeds they need to survive.

- Description
- The owners of the Jackdaw gas platform in the North Sea say it is "hyper critical" that the UK government approves production to avoid the risk of domestic supply shortages this winter.
Speaking to BBC News at the field 150 miles east of Aberdeen, Adura chief executive Neil McCulloch said the project was in its final stages and could meet 6% of the UK's gas from 1 October.
The industry regulator is considering revised applications for production at Jackdaw, and Adura's Rosebank oil field west of Shetland, after a court ruled that both had been unlawfully approved.
Environmental campaigners say this summer's deadly and record-breaking heatwaves demonstrate the need to tackle climate change by rejecting both projects.

- Today, Andy Burnham's Labour leadership bid has been backed by 322 Labour MPs.
If no one else enters the contest, as expected, Burnham will be declared Labour leader next week before taking office as prime minister on 20 July. Burnham is currently just one short of securing 323 nominations, which is when it is mathematically impossible for a rival to reach the 81-MP threshold needed to run against him. Adam and Chris discuss.
An interim review of Personal Independence Payments (Pip) in England and Wales had found it to be "not fit for purpose". Last year, the UK government asked Sir Stephen Timms to review whether Pip was "fair and fit for the future". His initial report is being published on Thursday ahead of the final recommendations due in the autumn.Adam and Alex discuss with Ben Chu Policy and Analysis Correspondent, BBC Verify.

- Iran has launched fresh strikes on US targets today, following a second night of strikes between the two countries last night.
The fragile ceasefire between the two countries was ruptured earlier this week when the US accused Iran of targeting commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.
The US military says it struck around 90 Iranian targets on Wednesday night, and more than 80 the night before.
Sirens sounded in Jordan, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Iraq as a result of the Iranian drone and missile strikes.
Meanwhile, the final day of public mourning for Iran's late Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has taken place while strikes have been exchanged. Huge crowds have gathered for his burial this evening.

- A Palestinian aid worker who organised Gaza's World Cup screenings was killed in an Israeli strike just before Egypt played Argentina on Tuesday.
Mohammed al-Wahidi spent years supporting families in Gaza, working as the director of the Egyptian Committee in Gaza.
About an hour before the game began, an Israeli missile struck the taxi he was travelling in.
He was killed alongside two brothers aged eight and 10, who were walking home after playing football, and another man who was caught nearby.
The Israeli military’s response is that Mohammed al-Wahidi was not the intended target - and that the strike was aimed at a Hamas militant. It says it is reviewing what happened and regrets harm to civilians.
Mohammed’s family says he will be remembered for helping people, supporting families in need and bringing his community together.

- Description
- The US has launched dozens of strikes on Iran, after President Donald Trump declared their ceasefire over, and called Tehran's leadership "scum". Iran vowed to respond "fearlessly" to Mr Trump's "vulgarity", and has targeted US military sites across the Gulf region.
Washington says this flare-up in violence began when Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) fired on commercial ships crossing the Strait of Hormuz via a route not approved by Tehran.
We ask Parham Ghobadi of the BBC's Persian service why Iran's leaders were willing to jeopardise the ceasefire, and what their strategy is now, amid increasing fears of a return to all-out war.
Plus, we look at the week-long funeral ceremonies for the late supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, during which some Iranian officials called for Mr Trump to be killed.

In a video posted online, Platner said his decision was not an admission of guilt but due to Democrats' threats to cut off campaign support. He called the assault allegation "false".
He said he would officially file to withdraw from the race once he's assured his replacement in the race against Republican Susan Collins is selected in a "transparent and democratic" way.

- Before a deadly outbreak this year, Bangladesh had made "substantial progress" towards eliminating measles, according to the World Health Organisation. Vaccination rates had been higher than 90%.
But that progress has quickly come undone. Since March, government figures show nearly 750 people have died, mostly children. The death toll includes confirmed and suspected cases of measles. But Unicef says the true numbers are likely higher.
Government figures show more than 120,000 suspected and confirmed measles cases since mid-March, and there are still nearly 1,000 new cases daily.
But why has this happened? The BBCs’ South Asia Correspondent Azadeh Moshiri reports from a measles ward in the Bangladeshi city of Mymensingh.

The US president hasn’t hidden his consternation with European leaders, and has suggested he is only attending ‘out of respect to President Erdogan’.
Turkey’s leader Recep Tayyip Erdogan has come under criticism for a crackdown on dissent in the country, which has led to over 200 arrests of activists, journalists and public figures in the lead up to the summit. So how has he taken on such a pivotal role within Nato?
Tristan Redman from The Global Story speaks to BBC correspondent and presenter, Mark Lowen, who was based in Istanbul for five years, before he was detained and banned from the country while on a reporting trip last year.
