Australia's Prime Minister Scott Morrison has had to cut short a visit to a town affected by the bushfires after angry locals heckled him. He was criticised by people in the town of Cobargo in New South Wales over the government's response to the crisis. We explain what happened and get the latest on the bushfires.
Also, we hear from people affected by the floods in the Indonesian capital, Jakarta. At least 26 people have died after the city had its most intense rainfall for at least 24 years.
