Movement in Belarus-EU migrant crisis
Hundreds of Iraqis repatriated from Belarus and a migrant camp is cleared
The Polish authorities say a large group of migrants in a makeshift camp on the Belarusian side of their border have been moved back from the frontier to a nearby warehouse. Meanwhile, hundreds of other migrants in Belarus have been repatriated to Iraq. We hear from Poland's deputy foreign minister, a reporter who has spent the last few days talking to people on the border and an Iraqi Kurdish man whose future remains unclear.
Also on the programme: the mystery deepens over the missing Chinese tennis star Peng Shuai; and a New York judge quashes the convictions of two men for the murder of Malcolm X.
