Global tree losses from fires

This week on OS, five of the BBC's correspondents from five countries are presenting the programme.

We were live from Jerusalem on Monday, from Nairobi yesterday and today our Southern Europe correspondent Mark Lowen will be hosting the show from Rome.

Mark was recently in France, covering the forest fires, and we’ll be discussing the impact of heatwaves and drought in Europe and around the world.

We get the details on a new report which says about 16 football pitches of trees per minute were lost to wildfires last year.

We also bring together three Afghans who a year ago had to leave their country after Kabul fell to the Taliban.
