Next Steps in the Fight Against Malaria

Eradicating malaria; Migration to Europe; Burkina Faso unrest

Advances in the treatment and prevention of malaria are estimated to have saved more than 6 million lives since 2000. Will we ever be able to truly eradicate the disease for good?

As many as 4,000 migrants are arriving every day at the main entry point into the EU, the Greek island of Lesbos.

General Gilbert Diendere, leader of the coup in Burkina Faso, has said he is ready to hand over power to transitional civilian authorities, as the army arrives in the capital.
