    In today’s briefing: the UK says it sees no evidence that Iran is preparing to target Britain, even as questions grow over a reported missile strike on a US–UK base in the Indian Ocean. Iran denies responsibility — and suggests the attack may have come from elsewhere.We also look at the British couple sentenced to 10 years in an Iranian prison after being accused of spying.

    21| The global push to ban kids from social media

    From Spain to Australia, governments are drawing a hard line on children and social media. Is this real protection — or a policy that could backfire?
