What now for South Africa?
The conversation between communities after a week of violence
After a week of violence in South Africa sparked by the jailing of former president Jacob Zuma, we bring together people from several communities to talk about where the country goes from here. Earlier, the current president, Cyril Ramaphosa, visited KwaZulu-Natal to see some of the damage for himself. How will South Africans heal the atmosphere of fear and mistrust between different groups?
Serious flooding after record rainfall has killed more than 100 people in Germany and Belgium, with many more missing. The Netherlands, Luxembourg and Switzerland have also been affected. We'll hear from some of those living through the flood and talk about how much the severe weather can be linked to changes in the climate caused by human activity.
We'll answer your questions on the coronavirus pandemic and talk through the latest issues with our regular expert, Dr Megan Murray from Harvard University.
