The British-Indian writer who has faced death threats for his novel The Satanic Verses, was stabbed on Friday while on stage at an event in New York state. In 1989, Iran's then leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini issued a fatwa, that has remained ever since, calling for Sir Salman's death.

On the Sky News Daily with Chloe Culpan, Sky's correspondent in the US, David Blevins, reports from outside the hospital where Sir Salman is being treated, and US foreign affairs analyst Robin Wright examines what the attack means for US and UK relations with Iran.
