BBC World Service - Weekend, Trump warns Iran if they hit Americans

Trump says US ready to strike 52 Iranian sites if Tehran attacks

President Trump says Washington has earmarked 52 targets in Iran, including cultural sites, for attack, should Teheran try to avenge the killing of its powerful general, Qassem Soleimani. Iranians have reacted angrily to his comments.

Also in the programme: The devastating bushfires in eastern Australia have now killed at least twenty-four people; and why is Sweden deporting talented tech workers?
