US Defence Secretary aims to improve relations with Israel

US Defence Secretary Ashton Carter is flying to Israel to try to repair relations following the controversial Iranian nuclear deal.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest says despite differences between Israel and the United States, there are still plenty of security issues for Mr Carter to discuss in Israel, including ways to prevent Iran from sponsoring Hizbollah and other militant groups.
