Donald Trump insists the Strait of Hormuz will open "toll-free" under the US's deal with Iran to end the war. Speaking at the G7 summit in France, the US president also says Iran will "never have a nuclear weapon" and criticised Israel over Lebanon. We speak to our correspondents from Iran, the US and Ukraine to hear all the latest news from the summit. Cape Verde fans are still celebrating their team's historic feat in the World Cup, drawing with Spain. Against the European champions, the 40 year old goalkeeper Vozinha made seven saves to keep a clean sheet for Cape Verde. We speak to fans to get their reaction. We speak to people evacuated from South Africa following a wave of protests against illegal immigration there.
