  • This is the global news podcast from the BBC World Service.

  • I'm Jackie Leonard and in the early hours of Wednesday, 26th March, these are our main stories.

  • Donald Trump says there'll be an investigation into how a journalist was invited onto a messaging group where he saw plans for U.S. airstrikes in Yemen.

  • But the President has defended his team.

  • Hundreds of people in northern Gaza have staged a protest against Hamas,

  • the biggest since the war there began.

  • And the White House says Russia and Ukraine have agreed to stop targeting shipping in the Black Sea,

  • but Moscow has insisted on further conditions before it implements any deal.

  • Also in this podcast, and I may have asked this question before, is there life on Mars?

  • The rover found there were some compounds in this particular rock,

  • and this is really exciting because these compounds haven't been found on Mars before.

  • President Trump says there'll be an investigation into how a journalist came to be invited onto a messaging group where top officials were discussing a US military attack on Houthis in Yemen.

  • He also said his administration would be taking a look at the messaging system signal itself.

  • But Mr. Trump defended the officials involved, including the national security adviser, Mike Walt,

  • who seems to have invited the journalist Jeffrey Goldberg from the Atlantic magazine,

  • into the group conversation.

  • We have an amazing group.

  • Our national security now is stronger than it's ever been.

  • There was no classified information.

  • As I understand it.
