Myanmar sees deadliest violence since coup began

Newshour - En podcast af BBC World Service

The lethal crackdown came as protesters defied warnings and took to the streets on the annual Armed Forces Day. We'll hear from the UN's special rapporteur on human rights in Myanmar, Tom Andrews. Also in the programme: Islamist militants have seized the town of Palma in northern Mozambique, the country's army has reportedly withdrawn from the town; and we'll go back to one woman we spoke to at the start of the UK's lockdown about how the past year affected her addiction.
