Coronavirus conversations: Sudan

We hear the experiences of three women in Sudan during the coronavirus pandemic

Three women in Sudan talk about how their country has been affected by the pandemic. They all know plenty of people who've been ill or died in the past year, with infections suspected to be much worse than the official figures. They also say many can't afford to buy tests and masks.

We speak to our Africa correspondent about the death of the long-time president of Chad, 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 also return to India for the latest updates on the coronavirus pandemic. Dr Swapneil Parikh, an infectious disease researcher at the Kasturba Hospital in Mumbai talks about the situation where he is.

And we bring more reaction to the proposal by Europe’s biggest football clubs to create a new “European Super League”.
