Sri Lanka attacks 'linked to foreign network'

Explosions that killed 290 people in Sri Lanka on Sunday were carried out with the support of an international network, officials say. The government has blamed a local jihadist group, but no one has yet said they carried out the bombings. We speak to our correspondent in the capital, and hear from Sri Lankans.

Also, we get reaction from Ukrainians about the election after the landslide victory of comedian Volodymyr Zelensky, who got 73% of votes. The incumbent, Petro Poroshenko, trailed behind on 24%.

And in Japan, there have been protests over outcomes in rape cases, which are generally only pursued when there are signs of physical force and self-defence. We bring you an interview with Shiori Ito, a journalist who spoke out about allegations that she'd been raped - and became the face of Japan's "MeToo" movement.
