Australia Fires

Australian PM Scott Morrison says he will not make "reckless" cuts to the nation's coal industry, despite criticism of his response to climate change and a deadly bushfire crisis. Young people on the messaging app Tic Tok have been reacting. We hear what they say from the BBC's reporter in Sydney.

Boeing has announced that its chief executive, Dennis Muilenburg, is stepping down. He faced calls for his resignation over the company's response to two deadly crashes involving the firm's best-selling 737 Max airliner. We get analysis and reaction from our business reporter in New York.

Also, five people have been sentenced to death in Saudi Arabia for the murder of the journalist Jamal Khashoggi last year. We speak to our Middle East analyst to get the latest.
