Cost of living crisis: Sri Lanka
We hear about the impact of rising prices around the world
We explain factors behind the global cost of living crisis, and hear from two people in conversation from Sri Lanka where a massive spike in the cost of food, medicine and fuel has sparked protests.
We have a report by our correspondent in Ukraine who has spent some time with men protecting the critical frontline against Russian forces in the eastern city of Iyzum, known as a gateway to Donbas region.
We hear about the killings in the US city of Buffalo over the weekend and explain how racially-motivated assailants, radicalised online, take their ideology to deadly extremes
We also go to Nigeria to talk about the reaction to the killing of a student accused of blasphemy.
