Opposition in Zimbabwe calls for mass protests

Newsday

Available for over a year

Zimbabwe’s main opposition group goes ahead with mass protests against economic hardship despite a police ban. We return to Lampedusa, in Italy, where a reception centre was temporarily closed down after protests and hunger strikes by migrants. And we go to the US city of Newark where thousands of residents have been told to drink bottled water over lead contamination in drinking water.
