World prepares for new US tariffs

President Trump says he will be "very kind" to America's trading partners when he unveils further tariffs this week. The US president has suggested imposing sweeping tariffs on all countries in an attempt to gain better trade deals and safeguard the US economy from unfair competition. We hear the latest from our business correspondent in New York.

Myanmar's military government says more than 2,700 people are confirmed to have died as a result of the earthquake, but the true number of casualties is feared to be much higher. A BBC team that has arrived in the largest affected city, Mandalay, reported widespread devastation, large numbers of residents in temporary shelters in the streets, and victims cremated in stacks. We hear from people in Myanmar and those abroad who have relatives there.

We speak to our correspondent who's been to Khartoum - the capital of Sudan - after the country's armed forces took control of the city from the paramilitary Rapid Support Forces.
