Coronavirus: Doctors in India

Doctors working on the frontline in India tell us how the country is coping with Covid-19

We go to Afghanistan, where sources say a major row broke out between leaders of the Taliban, just days after they set up a new government. Senior Taliban officials told the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ that supporters of two rival factions argued at the presidential palace in the capital Kabul - reportedly over who did the most to secure victory over the US, and how power was divided up in the new cabinet. The ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ reporter who broke the story, Khudai Noor Nasar, joins us.

Also, we hear a conversation between two doctors working on the frontline in India, to find out how they're coping with the coronavirus pandemic. India's second wave of Covid-19 left hospitals unable to take more patients and oxygen supplies running low. What's the situation now?

And we tell you about a ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ investigation into the life of Nigerian Instagram influencer, Hushpuppi. He’s considered by the FBI to be one of the world’s most high-profile fraudsters, facing up to 20 years in prison after pleading guilty to money laundering.
