Turkish Lira Crashes to Record Low

Turkish currency has fallen sharply as concerns grow about the worsening state of its economy.

We'll be live in Turkey, where President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has called on people to defend the national currency after its value slumped by ten per cent within a day. Also, latest on the shooting in the Canadian city of Fredericton, and the sudden demolition of a Nairobi shopping mall in Kenya. We also speak to the mother of the murdered Swedish journalist Kim Wall, as people remember her daughter's life and work one year on.
