Tsunami warnings: Your questions answered

Tsunami warnings came after a huge earthquake off eastern Russia.

Tsunami alerts have been scaled back across much of the northern Pacific after one of the world's strongest earthquakes struck Russia's Far East. Waves of up to three metres are still possible for coastal Chile, Costa Rica, and other Pacific ocean islands. We have two experts who answer audience questions about earthquakes and tsunamis.

The Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza says seven more people have died of conditions linked to malnutrition over the last 24 hours. We speak to our correspondent in Jerusalem.

The streets of the English city of Birmingham have been packed with tens of thousands of heavy metal fans, paying their respects to the Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne, as his funeral cortege travelled through his home city. We hear from fans and speak to our reporter in Birmingham.

Greece and Turkey have been hit particularly hard by wildfires over the past days. We hear how people's lives have been impacted; one of them tells us her mother was inside their house when the fire started. Their entire home burnt down.

Presenter: Mark Lowen.
