Fires break out in the migrant camp, three days into an operation to demolish it.

Fires break out in the migrant camp known as the Jungle in Calais, France, three days into an operation by the French authorities to demolish it. Militants loyal to the so-called Islamic State group say they abducted and killed at least 30 civilians in central Afghanistan. A major initiative set to be announced to tackle Zika. And, South Africa celebrates the return of Champions League heroes, Mamelodi Sundowns.
