BBC World Service - Newshour, Senior women win landmark climate case at top European court

A group of elderly women from Switzerland, demanding that their government do more to tackle climate change, have won a landmark climate case at a top European court. We hear from a 76-year-old change-maker. 

Also on the programme: Israel says that more than 400 aid trucks were allowed in on Monday; and Simon Harris becomes Ireland's youngest ever leader at the age of 37.
