Israel-Iran conflict / China-Africa ties / Centre Street Soeng5 Lok6 Festival
On today's programme, we delved into the escalating tension in the Middle East. The United Nations is calling for restraint as Israel and Iran continue to exchange fire. China has also expressed concern and condemned Israel’s violations of Iran’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity. Tel Aviv and Tehran traded blows after Israel launched a blistering surprise attack on Iranian nuclear and military sites on Friday, killing several top generals.
We also heard about China’s growing friendship with African nations. Beijing announced last week it will grant zero tariffs on all tariff lines for the 53 African countries with which it has diplomatic relations. We spoke to an expert to find out about the significance of the move amid rising geopolitical and trade tensions around the globe.
A the end of the show, we spoke to the organisers of the Centre Street Soeng5 Lok6 Festival.

Heatwave related deaths / Mainland athletes visiting Hong Kong
主持人：Janice Wong and Philip Wong
On Wednesday's Backchat, we're talking about the hot weather and what we can do to mitigate its impact.
The observatory on Monday said it had recorded Hong Kong's hottest day so far this year, with the mercury hitting 35.4 degrees Celsius at its headquarters in Tsim Sha Tsui. The highest temperature of 38.9 degrees was recorded in Sheung Shui. It warned that the city could see above-normal temperatures in the next few months.
This comes as experts from the University of Hong Kong urged authorities to come up with an extreme weather action plan to help people deal with the impact of high temperatures here.
A new study by the university claimed that heatwaves over the past decade may have cost the lives of more than 1,600 people. So what should be included in this action plan? And how are people coping with the hot weather at the moment?
After 9:45am, we talk about mainland Olympic stars that are expected to visit Hong Kong later this month.
