This is the Global News podcast from the BBC World Service.

I'm Jackie Leonard and in the early hours of Thursday, the 17th of April, these are our main

stories. A US judge says he's found probable cause to hold the Trump administration in contempt

of court for disregarding his order to halt the deportation of Venezuelan migrants.

The head of the World Trade Organization says international trade will be hit hard by President

Trump's tariffs and poor countries will suffer disproportionately.

And the UN's top non-proliferation official says Iran is not far from developing a nuclear weapon.

pledging mass deportations of millions of people living in the US without authorization.

And in March, the administration used an obscure wartime law to deport a group of migrants,

it alleges, were Venezuelan gang members, to a mega prison in El Salvador.

That's despite a US judge ordering the flight to be turned around. Now that judge,

James Boseberg, has said that the Trump administration could be in contempt of court for

disregarding his order. Our North America correspondent, Jake Kwan, told us more about what the judge said.

They could not turn the flight back around because it's already in the air.

Now, the judge is saying that he does not buy this argument and that, you know, he could potentially find White House in contempt.
