Available for 18 days

Kenyan police have fired teargas and warning shots to disperse tens of thousands of mourners gathered to view the body of the former prime minister, Raila Odinga - causing huge crowds to flee in panic. It's feared many people have been injured in the ensuing crush. We speak to our reporter. This week we are checking in with communities in Israel and Gaza to explore the impact of the two-year war. Today we hear from a Palestinian family separated by the conflict. Kanchha Sherpa, the only surviving member of the first expedition to scale Mount Everest, has died at the age of 92. We speak to his son, Tshering Sherpa. Presenter: Rahul Tandon. (Photo: Crowds fleeing tear gas in a stadium.)
