About this episode

A preliminary report on the Air India crash that killed 260 people in June has found that both fuel control switches were in the cut-off position - a step that turns off the engines - moments before the plane crashed in Ahmedabad. Also on the programme, the US says it's aware of the killing of an American citizen in the occupied West Bank after his family said he'd been beaten to death by Jewish settlers; and, a look at the Wimbledon women's final.
