Child malnutrition in Afghanistan

A ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ report looking at the sharp surge in child malnutrition.

A ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ report from Afghanistan that takes a look at a sharp surge in child malnutrition. Our report looks at the severe reduction in aid, with donors walking away from the country because of the Taliban's intransigence on women's rights.

Israel has heavily bombed Gaza City overnight with unconfirmed reports that the military has now launched its ground offensive to occupy the entire city. We assess what is known about the situation there.

And we go to South Sudan where the main opposition party has called for 'regime change' in response to the government's plans to try its leader, Riek Machar, on treason and murder charges.
