Tokyo 2020 Paralympic Games

We hear how two Paralympians are feeling ahead of the Games

We go to Japan as the country prepares for the Paralympics. Record numbers of Covid cases means that Tokyo is in a state of emergency, and tight restrictions will be in place. We hear from two Paralympians to find out how they are feeling ahead of the Games.

We continue to follow the situation in Afghanistan, where evacuations are still taking place at Kabul International Airport. We'll bring you the latest and hear the voices of people inside the country, a week after the fall of the capital.

And we are joined by our health expert, Professor Manfred Green from the University of Haifa in Israel, to answer your questions about Covid-19. If you have a question, send us a WhatsApp message +447730 751925.
