Thousands feared dead in Libya floods

The World Tonight

Available for over a year

Thousands may have died after storm waters swept through parts of north eastern Libya. We hear from those caught up in the deluge. Also on the programme: The Government is reportedly poised to ban single-use vapes. We hear about their impact on one family - from the father of two teenage daughters who've become addicted to e-cigarettes. And the man who identified a stolen Van Gogh painting when it resufaced in an IKEA bag.
