Myanmar struggles two years after military coup

Two years after generals in Myanmar seized power and crushed hopes for democracy, we look at how the country is coping.

It's two years to the day since the generals in Myanmar seized power and crushed hopes of democracy.

We hear about the military's brutal new tactics, the situation of the Rohingya people and how the opposition is waging its fight.

Also in the programme: We hear from the funeral of Tyre Nichols - another victim of US police violence; and Britain has its biggest day of strikes in a decade.
