Morocco earthquake: Death toll rises to more than 600

The Moroccan Interior Ministry says 632 people are now known to have been killed by a strong earthquake, which struck late on Friday. Those injured number more than 300 but that figure is likely to rise. Many of the victims are believed to be in remote areas.

Also in the programme: the G20 has invited the African Union to join its group as a permeant member on the opening day of the summit in India; people have fled their homes as organised crime groups take over neighbours in Haiti's capital Port-au-Prince.

Joining Julian Worricker to discuss all this and more are Aida Alami, a Moroccan journalist based in Rabat, and Christopher Marquis, the Sinyi Professor of Chinese Management at Cambridge University.
