Pence makes surprise Iraq visit

The Vice President of the United States, Mike Pence, has met Iraqi Kurdish leaders and US troops. Meanwhile anti-government protests in the country have continued.

Also on the programme: the museum in the former colony of Democratic Republic of Congo looking to tell its history on its own terms; and we hear from the author behind a report on the repatriation of the women of ISIS.
