After 21 months of war, there are growing hopes of a new Gaza ceasefire announcement as Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu meets US President Donald Trump in Washington. Trump previously told reporters he had been "very firm" with Netanyahu about ending the conflict and that he thought "we'll have a deal" this week. Also on the programme, Kenyan officials say eleven people have been shot dead during big anti-government protests; and, a teenage boy has become the youngest person to swim the North Channel route - between Northern Ireland and Scotland.
