At least seven people have died in Thailand after a teenage boy shot his grandparents and some schoolteachers on the outskirts of the capital city, Bangkok. Authorities say the suspected shooter, 14, is also dead. The Thai prime minister has said the attack was "well prepared" with "clear steps and clear goals". Also in the programme: A US court fines the social media giant Meta more than a half a billion dollars and labels it a public nuisance; an Iranian political prisoner tells us what it is like to fall foul of the Revolutionary Guards; and the promise and peril of a virus designed by AI.
