Cyclone Idai: Threat of waterborne disease

Thousands in Beira, Mozambique, are being treated for diarrhoea after the cyclone

Thousands of people in Beira, Mozambique, are now being treated for diarrhoea following the cyclone. It's an early symptom of cholera - the deadly waterborne disease - which experts on the ground have been warning about.

Also, at least 19 people have been killed in a huge blaze in a high-rise building in an upmarket commercial area of the Bangladeshi capital, Dhaka.

And we go back to Brexit, Britain's exit from the European Union. MPs will vote again on Friday but it is not clear whether it will be another "meaningful vote" on the PM's withdrawal deal. Our reporter brings us up to date.
