Download How will Trump's Hormuz toll work?
Iranian state media is reporting new US attacks, as the battle for control of the Strait of Hormuz continues. Donald Trump says the US naval blockade of Iranian ports will be reinstated later, and the US will start charging a levy for shipping.
Also in the programme: President Macron of France says Europe has had a 'strategic awakening' as French military power is paraded on Bastille Day; and 'Gus' the T-Rex fossil goes up for auction.
