Afghanistan: Ethnic groups

We hear about Afghanistan's different ethnic groups

We'll hear about the concerns over the Taliban takeover among ethnic minorities in Afghanistan, after reports of an attack by the Taliban on members of the Hazara community.

We'll also bring the latest on reports of the Taliban searching for people who worked for foreign forces. We'll get more testimonies from those who are trying to flee.

And we'll hear how Afghan sportswomen are reflecting on the events in their country. Two footballers, a former captain and the current captain of the women's football team discuss the future of women's sport in Afghanistan.

And we continue to look at the impact of the pandemic around the world and speak to people who work in tourism on the islands of Martinique and Guadeloupe ---both hit hard by Covid-19.
