Sudanese military takes control of country

At least two protesters killed and eighty injured

The military has arrested political leaders and declared a state of emergency. Power in the country had been shared between civilians and the military after the ousting of President Omar al-Bashir in April 2019. We'll hear from Jeffrey Feltman, the US envoy to the region.

Also in the programme: a new report from the World Meteorological Organisation about rising carbon emissions; and the world鈥檚 oldest known cave painting of an animal.
