Still to come in this podcast. Archaeologists uncover a rare find, a near complete Iron Age war trumpet that may be linked to an ancient British tribe led by the warrior queen Boudicaire.
Since Israel's war in Gaza began in October 2023, concerns have grown over the treatment of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. But never before has a United Nations rights chief described the conditions there as an apartheid system. Now a new UN report points to the asphyxiating impact of Israel's laws, policies and practices on the daily lives of Palestinians living in the occupied territory.

As protests continue across Iran, a human rights group says at least 36 people have been killed during the past 10 days of demonstrations. The Human Rights Activist News Agency says two of them were affiliated with the security forces. The unrest was sparked by an economic crisis and has now spread to most of Iran's provinces. Meanwhile, officials say a man accused of spying for Israel has been executed. Kazra Najji of the BBC Persian Service told me more about him.
According to Iranian officials, his name is Ali Ardestani. The Iranian authorities are saying that he was a key Mossad agent and that he was passing on sensitive information to Israelis and photographing particular places.
Oh, they haven't. They haven't.
Mutta kuitenkin, viesti on selkeÀ. Ja tÀmÀ mies on todennÀköisesti 12 tai 13 henkilöÀ, jotka ovat olleet valmistuneet Mosadin ja Israelin kÀsittÀmÀÀn Israelin viime viikkoja. Kerro meille lisÀÀ nÀistÀ protesteista, jotka ovat olleet kÀynnissÀ 10 pÀivÀÀ ja jotka nÀyttÀvÀt, ettÀ ne ovat kohdistuneita ja ovat iso haaste toisistaan.
That's true. We are definitely getting the picture of the spate of unrest expanding rather than dying down. Today so far we've got reports of unrest from several cities, from the very top of Iran to the bottom of Iran, from the west to the middle of Iran.
Ja jotkut niistÀ ovat vÀÀrÀssÀ. VÀÀrÀssÀ kukaan? YmpÀristöjen ja turvallisuuden vÀlillÀ. Ja mielenkiintoinen asia tÀmÀn Iranin ympÀristön ympÀristöön on, ettÀ se on saapunut pienempiin viljelijöihin. Ja tÀmÀ on se, mitÀ nÀimme 1979-revolution aikana.
It had got to the level of villages. And today we're getting signs of that. So yeah, it is deepening. Kazranarji. It's a rare discovery that has excited archaeologists here in England. They've unearthed an Iron Age battle trumpet in the eastern county of Norfolk. It's the most complete battle trumpet or karnyx ever found in Europe.
It's believed that it was used by Celtic tribes across the continent, including the Ikenai tribe, which was led by Queen Boudica in her failed uprising in Britain against the Romans nearly 2,000 years ago. David Slitter reports.
The sound of a carnix, or rather a reconstruction of this animal-headed battle trumpet, used, it's thought, either in rituals or to terrify enemies. Remains of two others have been found in the UK over the years, but this meter and a half metal war horn with long, flappy ears...
is the most complete. Discovered at an undisclosed location in Norfolk, the hoard includes two trumpets and even rarer, a boar's head battle standard buried in the homeland of the Ikenai tribe. And while it's difficult to date accurately, it's thought to be from the first century AD, the time of the Ikenai revolt against the Romans, led by their warrior queen, Boudicca.
Sounds beautiful. That report was by David Slitto. And that's all from us for now, but there will be a new edition of the Global News Podcast later.
