Afghanistan conflict

Fighting continues between Taliban and Afghan government forces

As fierce fighting continues in Afghanistan between Taliban and government forces, we hear the latest on the conflict from our BBC correspondent. We also take a look at the recent history that has seen Afghanistan return to internal conflict.

The UN has said at least 27 children have been killed in Afghanistan in three days. We hear Afghan women discuss how they see their future and that of their country.

We have the latest on the case brought by a US woman who alleges that she was brought to the UK aged 17 to have sex with the Duke of York, claims the Duke has consistently denied.

And as Lionel Messi leaves Barcelona to join Paris St Germain, we hear fans from each club discuss the move.
