Somalia flooding: Over a million forced from their homes.

President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud said Somalia is facing a humanitarian crisis caused by the climate change-enhanced El Nino.

In a nationally televised speech, President Hassan Sheikh Mohamud said Somalia is facing a humanitarian crisis caused by the climate change-enhanced El Nino. It comes as world leaders are meeting in Dubai to discuss the climate crisis at the COP28 summit. Our correspondent in the region brings us the latest developments, and we hear from people affected.

Fighting resumed between Israel and Hamas on Friday morning, ending a seven-day ceasefire between the two sides that had seen hostages and prisoners released and much-needed humanitarian assistance reaching the Gaza Strip. We bring you the latest developments, as Israel possibly begins the next phase of its military campaign.

We speak to the fertility doctor who helped a 70-year-old woman in Uganda to conceive and give birth to twins with the aid of IVF treatment.
