UN: Hundreds of thousands could flee Sudan

Fighting has triggered an exodus of people to neighbouring countries, including Egypt, Chad, and the Central African Republic.

Also on the programme: Police in Paris fire tear gas at demonstrators after violence broke out at a May Day rally; and the Hollywood writers threatening to go on strike.
