Coronavirus: What do the experts say?
Our medical correspondent breaks down the facts
We continue our coverage of the coronavirus outbreak, as the number of deaths passes 1,100. Our medical correspondent breaks down what the experts say and tells us what we really know about the virus.
Also, following the news that Sudan's rulers have agreed to hand over former President Omar al-Bashir to the International Criminal Court, we hear from our reporter Mohanad Hashim. He's just returned from Darfur in the west of the country, where Bashir is accused of serious crimes in a conflict that led to the deaths of 300,000 people. Mohanad is one of the first journalists to travel freely in the region in a decade.
And the latest on local elections in India, where in the past few months women and students have been protesting against the government's controversial new citizenship law that some people say marginalises Muslims. Our women's affairs reporter, Divya Arya, speaks to two Muslim women at their home in Delhi.
