Workers rescued from India tunnel

All 41 construction workers who became trapped in a tunnel have been rescued.

The 41 construction workers trapped inside a tunnel in northern India have been rescued, 17 days after it collapsed. They were extracted one by one via a pipe 90cm (3ft) in diameter, which has been inserted through the rubble of the collapsed tunnel in Uttarakhand state. We hear more from our reporter in India.

The heads of the CIA and Mossad, the Israeli spy agency, have been meeting in Qatar for talks on further extending the Gaza ceasefire. We hear about the situation in Gaza.

We talk about the diplomatic row between Britain and Greece over the Parthenon sculptures, also known as the Elgin Marbles.

We discuss a BBC investigation showing that toxic pollutants released during gas flaring are endangering millions more people than previously feared.

We cross over to Finland to find out why the country has closed the entire Russian border.
