Myanmar protests continue across the country

Newsday

Available for over a year

Thousands of people in Myanmar have once again taken to the streets, as the military warned anti-coup protesters they could die. We speak to a human right activist and former political prisoner in Myanmar. Friends of Princess Latifa call for sanctions against the Emirate of Dubai for allegedly holding her hostage. Her best friend, with her at the time of the alleged abduction, joins us live. And in the midst of the battle against Covid-19, Guinea declared last week another outbreak of Ebola. We report on how countries have been learning from past Ebola outbreaks to be better prepared this time.
