Afghanistan: Two years since Taliban takeover

We look at the developments in Afghanistan two years since the Taleban re-took power.

On the second anniversary of their return to power in Afghanistan, the Taliban have accused the West of using women's rights as an excuse to put pressure on them. We bring together two Afghan colleagues and our Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet to discuss what has happened in Afghanistan since August 2021.

We also hear from a woman inside Afghanistan and bring together three Afghan women who have had to leave the country.

We have the latest sports headines and hear about "the world's happiest man"

Presenter: James Reynolds.
