Note that some people might find today's programme upsetting.

It is 40 years since Japanese gunmen attacked the Lod airport in Tel Aviv, Israel. They were left-wing militants working for a Palestinian organisation.

Twenty-six people were killed that day and more than 70 others were injured.

Witness hears from Ros Sloboda, one of the survivors of the shooting.
