BBC World Service - BBC OS, Fears of Iran attack on Israel grow

US officials have warned that Iran could launch a major attack on Israel as soon as today

US officials have warned that Iran could launch a major attack on Israel as soon as today.

US officials told CBS news that Iran's attack could involve more than 100 drones and dozens of missiles, targeting Israeli military assets. Local media reports that Israel's prime minister is to meet top officials to prepare for a possible attack by Iran. We speak to our correspondent in Israel and to our reporter from BBC Persian. 

The 20th anniversary of the BAFTA Game Awards, one of the biggests nights in the gaming calendar, took place on Thursday in London. Our reporter Laura Cress was there and brings the highlights. 

We talk to music journalists about why the Coachella festival in the US has seen a slump in ticket sales. 

We hear from a Paralympian who criticised Nike for using amputee mannequins to promote its products when it doesn't sell single trainers. We also get reaction from other amputees. 

Presenter: Luke Jones.
