Coronavirus conversations: Love in lockdown

BBC World Service - BBC OS, Coronavirus conversations: Love in lockdown

We speak to couples who have found love during the pandemic

We continue our conversations with people around the world talking about their experiences during the coronvirus pandemic. Today we speak to couples who have found love despite lockdown measures.

And a spokesman for the German government has said that they have concluded "unequivocally" that the leading Russian opposition politician, Alexei Navalny, was poisoned with a Novichok nerve agent. Our security correspondent brings us the latest developments and analysis.

And five years after images of Syrian toddler, Alan Kurdi, who was found washed up on a beach in Turkey, shocked the world, we hear from his father and also reporters who covered the story at the time. We reflect on the legacy of his death.
