Crowd crush at Africa Cup of Nations in Cameroon

At least eight people have been killed and many injured in a crush outside the stadium. We hear from people who were at the game in Yaoundé between Cameroon and Comoros

A crowd crush has killed at least 8 people on their way into Monday night’s Africa Cup of Nations football match in Cameroon. We’ll speak to people who were at the game in Yaoundé between Cameroon and Comoros to try to build up a picture of what happened and why.

We explain and analyse the on-going diplomacy to try to calm fears of a Russian invasion of Ukraine. We cover the day's news including key statements expected from leaders in Brussels, Berlin and Washington DC.

We’re continuing to follow events in Burkina Faso after military officers announced on TV that they had overthrown the president and seized power. They gave the deteriorating security situation due to an Islamist insurgency as the reason. We’ll speak to people who are there and find out how they’re feeling about the situation.

And we talk through today's main developments with Covid-19 with the help of one of our regular experts, Dr.Isaac Bogoch, infectious diseases physician and scientist at the University of Toronto.
