Mina Mangal: Outcry over killing of Afghan journalist

Afghan politicians and women's rights activists are demanding justice after a political adviser and former prominent TV presenter was murdered in broad daylight in the capital.

Two Afghan women talk to us about life as a woman in the country following the murder of a female political adviser and former prominent TV presenter. Mina Mangal was shot at close range on the street in broad daylight in the capital Kabul.

We also discuss whether a sex strike is the best way to protest against the new law in the US state of Georgia which bans abortion once a heartbeat is detected.

China has announced tariffs on more than 5,000 different American imports as a response to the US doubling tariffs on 200 billion dollars worth of Chinese imports, a few days ago. We'll speak to our business correspondent Michelle Fleury in New York.
