Belarus sprinter Krystina Timanovskaya in Poland

The Belarusian sprinter who fell foul of her coaches at the Olympics has said her grandmother persuaded her it was not safe to return home. We hear a part of the interview she gave to the BBC in Poland, and speak to other Belarusians who have left the country.

We also hear from people affected by wildfires in Greece and Turkey.

As the Tokyo Olympic Games are approaching their final few days, we'll be hearing from two doctors who were both sceptical about Japan hosting the Games. How do they think the country has managed the coronavirus during this period?

Also, according to a new study, a sprawling network of more than 350 fake social media profiles is pushing pro-China narratives and attempting to discredit those seen as opponents of China's government. We are joined by our colleague from the BBC’s Disinformation Team, who have been looking into this story
