US secures release of American prisoner held in Russia

Could the release of Marc Fogel signal a thaw in US-Russian relations?

Donald Trump鈥檚 special envoy to the Middle East flew to Moscow to collect American prisoner Marc Fogel. Could Fogel鈥檚 release signal a thaw in US-Russian relations, and what does it mean for American support for Ukraine? We speak to former US ambassador to Moscow Michael McFaul.

Also on the programme: we'll be live in Jerusalem as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says the ceasefire in Gaza will end if Hamas doesn't release hostages on Saturday; and we hear from the Essex headteacher whose school gives detention to pupils who score less than 90% on their maths homework.
