There's a huge police presence across a number of cities in China, following a wave of anti-government rallies that were sparked by anger at the country's strict Covid rules. Protestors have been warned not to break the law. We hear a conversation between Chinese people living outside the country, to find out what they think of the protests. And our China Media Analyst reports on the social media platforms being targeted in the country.

Also on the programme, Russia has hit out at comments from the Pope that some minority groups of soldiers have behaved worse than others in the invasion of Ukraine. We鈥檒l explain the background to these communities and will be hearing from them.

And we head to Qatar where many Iranian football fans have been using the World Cup to continue their anti-government protest on the global stage. We'll hear some of their views.
