Race to Reach Mexico Quake Survivors
Rescuers race to reach survivors trapped under the rubble of a school in Mexico City
Rescuers are racing against the clock to reach survivors trapped under the rubble of a school in Mexico City, which collapsed during Tuesday's earthquake.
So far 230 people are known to have died, with at least 21 children and five adults killed under the collapsed primary school.
Also in the programme: the role inequality is playing in German election campaigns; and Serbia's openly gay Prime Minister has become the first head of government in a Balkan country to take part in a gay pride march.
