We took our documentary to Parliament this week.
The day after, we sat down with the Safeguarding Minister. The Minister described our investigation as ‘behind your worst nightmares’. She told @SkyNewsAdele platforms are “not looking hard enough” for harmful content.
@SamDoak5
Safeguarding minister Satvir Kaur told Sky's @SkyNewsAdele she "cried" while watching Sky News' The Com documentary which exposed harmful content across social and gaming platforms used by children.

Iran says one of its largest manufacturers of anti-cancer drugs was “destroyed” in attacks allegedly by Israel.
The company’s location appeared on a map published by the IDF. I’ve contacted the IDF about it; their response so far has been “still checking”.

NEW: Myself and colleagues in Sky News' Data and Forensics team have confirmed that a photo of Mandelson in his underwear was taken in Epstein's Paris apartment.
In a previous statement to Sky News, a spokesperson for Mandelson had said "No one can say who or where the photo was taken. Lord Mandelson has absolutely no idea or indeed whether it has any connection to Epstein at all."
Verification by me and @SamDoak5
Sky News has confirmed that a photo of Peter Mandelson in his underwear was taken in Jeffrey Epstein's Paris flat. The Data and Forensics Unit was able to match the metal balcony railing visible in the window to those used on Epstein's Paris home.
