Head of UN nuclear watchdog concerned for safety of Europe's largest nuclear power plant.

The head of the UN nuclear watchdog says he's increasingly concerned for the safety of Europe's largest nuclear power plant, which is in the hands of the Russians in southern Ukraine.

Also, Israel has killed a second top militant from the Palestinian Islamic Jihad group.

And the connection between British composer Vaughan Williams and Japan.

Joining Paul Henley today are: Imogen West-Knights, a writer and journalist based in London; and Marcus Chown, a science writer, journalist, and broadcaster also based in London.
