We're live in Afghanistan where the Taliban continue to make rapid advances. We find out what this means for the civilians who've sought refuge in the capital Kabul. The spokesperson for the Tigray People's Liberation Front tells the BBC they will keep fighting until Ethiopian national forces no longer pose a military threat to them. In Algeria the fires have now killed over 60 people - we speak to someone helping those who've had to flee their homes.
