Fleeing Lytton's wildfire

We speak to a man who evacuated his home after Canada's deadly heatwave led to intense fires. Lytton in British Columbia had seen record temperatures of more than 49 degrees Celsius this week.

We hear accounts of deadly violence in response to protests in the southern African kingdom of eSwatini. Our correspondent covering the story will explain the context to what we're hearing from people who live there. She'll also tell us about the political grievances driving the unrest in Africa's last remaining absolute monarchy.

We're examining the effects of the pandemic on countries we've not yet covered in the past 18 months of Covid-19. We'll speak to a journalist in the Middle Eastern nation of Oman to find out the impact of the virus there.
