Brazil floods and dam collapse

More than 30 people have lost their lives and another 60 people are missing.

A hydroelectric dam has collapsed in southern Brazil after days of heavy rain, and at least half a million people are without power and clean water across the state of Rio Grande do Sul. We speak to our reporter and hear from residents.

In Kenya millions brace for more extreme rainfall as more people are being evacuated. Our reporter joins from the affected area.

We talk to people who do new types of yoga, after Italy banned puppy yoga because of concerns over animal welfare.

We find out about the disappearance of two Australians and an American in Baja California, in one of Mexico's most violent states.

As we continue to monitor student protests against the war in Gaza, we hear from two Jewish people of two generations - one currently at the University of Columbia in New York, another who graduated in 1981.

Presenter: James Reynolds.
