'Repressive Response' to Anti-Government Protests in Sudan

Big protests in the Sudanese capital and across the country against the ruling power.

The United Nation's top human rights official slams the response of the Sudanese authorities to a wave of anti-government protesters. We hear from Khartoum and from the UN.

Also on the programme: a senior North Korean official heads to Washington DC as talk grows of a second Trump-Kim summit. And we speak to the woman who broke an ultra-marathon record while expressing milk.
