Calls grow for full inquiry into Minnesota shooting
President Trump is sending his top border official to Minnesota.
President Trump's administration is facing a growing backlash over the killing of Alex Pretti, a US citizen, by federal immigration agents on Saturday. It is the second fatal shooting there in a month. We speak to our correspondent and hear a conversation with four people in Minnesota about what they’ve been experiencing and witnessing on the streets over the past few weeks.
The Israeli military says it has retrieved the remains of the last hostage from Gaza, a key condition of the agreement to end the war with Hamas. We speak to our correspondent and hear from hostage families.
We also hear from our correspondent who has been following the voting in Myanmar, in what are widely viewed as sham elections.
