Libya floods: Over 5,000 dead

Floods burst two dams and swept away homes.

In Libya floods have killed more than 5,000 people. The floods burst two dams in the eastern coastal city of Derna and swept away homes. We'll speak to people there affected, including one man who lost 150 members of his family.

We'll also go back to Morocco, where rescue workers continue to try and help the thousands of people affected by the earthquake there. We'll speak to people who have been delivering help into the areas hardest hit.

And we'll sit down with our experts from BBC Monitoring to look at the meeting between Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong Un.
