BBC World Service - BBC OS, Rapper Nipsey Hussle shot dead

Rapper Nipsey Hussle has been shot dead in the US city of Los Angeles. The city's mayor blamed senseless gun violence. We reflect the conversation.  

Also, the latest from Turkey where the party of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan has lost control of Ankara and Istanbul in local elections. It is challenging the result in both cities. 

And in Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelenskiy, a comedian with no political experience, has won the first round of the presidential election. We have reaction to that surprising victory.
