Chad's president dies

President of Chad, Idriss Déby has died after "clashes with rebels"

We speak to our BBC Africa reporters about the death of Idriss Déby. The army in Chad says he was killed fighting rebels on the battlefield. His death comes hours after provisional election results showed him well on course to win a sixth term in office.

We bring more reaction to the proposal by Europe’s biggest football clubs to create a new “European Super League”. Fans have expressed fury at what they say is an unfair competition. We’ll put comments and questions on the plan to our sports reporter.

And, we're answering again audience questions about the pandemic, today with Dr Isaac Bogoch from the University of Toronto. We also continue our coronavirus conversations and bring together three women in Sudan who talk about the challenges people are facing as they try to make a living and also follow the lockdown restrictions.
