The BBC Global News Podcast presents a round-up of international news stories. The podcast begins with the French Prime Minister, François Bayrou, losing a confidence vote and being forced to resign due to disagreements over budget cuts. Next, Benjamin Netanyahu urges Gaza City residents to evacuate as the Israeli military escalates its assault, following an attack in Jerusalem. The podcast also covers the release of a sexually suggestive letter allegedly sent by Donald Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, which Trump denies. Other topics include protests in Nepal over corruption and social media bans, a new Banksy mural in London, the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo, and market reactions to an election upset in Argentina. Finally, the podcast discusses the concept of "golden visas" and concludes with author Ian McEwan's perspective on how future generations might view the present day.
