14 UN Peacekeepers killed in eastern DRC

14 UN peacekeepers from Tanzania have been killed in an attack in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo

Rebels of the Allied Democratic Forces are suspected of killing 14 Tanzanian UN peacekeepers and wounding more than 50 others in North Kivu province in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Also in the programme: the United Nations Security Council meets to discuss Jerusalem following President Trump's decision to recognise the city as the capital of Israel; and the end of the beginning of the Brexit talks - but was that the easy part?
