Children around the world are starting to return to school after months of absence because of the coronavirus pandemic. But opinion remains divided on whether it is safe for them to do so. We speak to mental health professionals from the US, Canada and Sweden about how school closures have affected children.

And we get the latest developments from Mali following yesterday's coup and the resignation of President Ibrahim Boubacar Ke茂ta. We hear reaction from people in the capital Bamako, who tell us what they want to see happen next.

Also we speak to our economics reporter in the US where Apple has become the first company to be worth $2 trillion on the US stock market.
