First woman named as new Archbishop of Canterbury
Dame Sarah Mullally will be the ceremonial head of the Anglican Communion.
A woman has been chosen as the Archbishop of Canterbury for the first time. Dame Sarah Mullally will be the ceremonial head of the Anglican Communion, which has more than 85 million followers worldwide. Conservative churches in Asia and Africa have criticised her appointment. We get reaction from female priests and speak to our religion reporter.
We hear an interview with a rabbi who stopped an attacker in a Manchester synagogue by barricading the door. Two Jewish men were killed in the attack on Thursday, and the police shot the attacker.
Sean "Diddy" Combs is in court in New York where he will be sentenced on two counts of transportation for prostitution. We speak to our reporter outside the court.
We hear from Gen Z protesters in Morocco who are calling for the resignation of the country's billionaire prime minister.
