Protests in Zimbabwe

Protests are taking place across Zimbabwe after President Emmerson Mnangagwa more than doubled the price of fuel.

We hear from people in Zimbabwe where protests are taking place across the country. Demonstrators have been using burning tyres and large stones to block main roads, and in some cities police have clashed with demonstrators.
Also today:
The mayor of the Polish city Gdansk, Pawel Adamowicz, has died in hospital a day after being stabbed at a charity event. He was attacked on stage in front of hundreds of people. We speak to someone from Gdansk, who knew Mr Adamowicz.
We also hear from a US bus driver, who rescued a toddler wandering outside in freezing cold.
And two Finnish men, who did not fancy online dating, decided to put up posters with pictures and tear off paper tags with contact numbers around the their home town. But did they find love?
