Newsday

Available for over a year

Myanmar’s military regime has ordered the release of more than 23,000 prisoners. This action by the military follows a week of fresh arrests targeting allies of ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi. We'll look back at the latest from day three of Donald Trump's impeachment trial. Also, we're in New York where restaurants are finally starting to open for customers again. Hundreds of restaurants have gone out of business in the past year whilst others are barely afloat. The move to partially open is not welcomed by everyone.
