About this episode
In an operation involving hundreds of troops and dozens of aircraft, the US military have rescued the American airman who went missing in southern Iran after an F-15 fighter jet was shot down on Friday. President Trump said the colonel was injured but will be fine. Also in the programme: a former Israeli soldier recalls the challenges of a prolonged occupation of Lebanon; and we explore the mystery of the far side of the moon.
