Coronavirus conversations: The impact on children with special needs
We speak to parents of kids with special needs about how the pandemic has affected them
As part of our series looking at education during the coronavirus pandemic, we speak to parents of children with special needs. Unathi in South Africa and Jamie in the US tell us about the unique challenges their families have faced during this period.
And we get reaction in Iraq to the killing of Riham Yaqoob, a doctor and female political activist who was shot dead in the city of Basra by unidentified assailants on Wednesday. It is the third such attack in a week.
Also former Trump adviser Steve Bannon has been arrested and charged with fraud over a fundraising campaign to build a wall on the US-Mexico border. Our reporter in Washington brings us the latest developments.
