US wildland firefighters discuss one of the most dangerous jobs in the world

We bring together three specialist wildland firefighters to share what it’s like to do one of the most dangerous jobs in the world. They travel across the country to battle the largest and the most dangerous wildfires. They discuss the impact of climate change, the rewards and the strains of the profession.

We get the latest on the attacks against UN bases in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo. Demonstrators have accused UN peacekeepers of failing to protect civilians from armed groups.

Britain's defence secretary says Russia has been crippled by huge military losses in Ukraine. We get more from our correspondent on the ground.

Washington DC's mayor has asked for National Guard troops to be activated to help process undocumented migrants arriving on buses in the district. We speak to one of the arrivals in the capital.
