Hurricane Matthew Devastation

World Have Your Say

Available for over a year

Hurricane Matthew has swept across the Caribbean, devastating parts of Haiti and Cuba. Millions of people are fleeing their homes ahead of the storm's arrival on the US coast. We speak to people directly affected across the region. Kylie Minogue's fiance says the couple will not marry until same-sex marriage becomes legal in Australia. We hear from people on either side of the debate. We hear from doctors in Sudan who have gone on strike to try to pressure the government to improve their working conditions, invest in basic hospital infrastructure and boost security in A&E departments. Plus, in the latest in our series of voices from Syria, a young man in the port city of Tartus describes daily life and his support for President Assad.
