Libya floods: Survivors

Residents describe how they got out alive as floodwaters smashed through Derna.

The UN emergency relief co-ordinator has welcomed a suggestion by the mayor of the flood-ravaged Libyan city of Derna to create a maritime corridor to deliver aid. He said shelter, food and medical care were the most urgent needs. We hear from survivors in Derna, and speak to our correspondent in the region.

We also find out about the situation in Morocco where nearly 3,000 people died in last week's earthquake.

Iran has massively increased security in the home town of Mahsa Amini a year on from her death at the hands of the morality police. We hear from people who have been taking part in protests and find out about the impact of the protest movement.

Presenter: James Reynolds.
