BBC World Service - BBC OS, Miami building collapse: Four people confirmed dead

Rescuers are desperately searching for any survivors trapped in the rubble

The number of people listed as missing after the collapse of a 12-storey building in the US city of Miami has risen to 159. We’ll speak to our reporter at the scene and to some of those whose relatives are unaccounted for.

Russia is seeing a surge in infections and our correspondent Sarah Rainsford - who has been reporting from St Petersburg - explains what's caused this latest surge. We'll look at today’s other coronavirus stories with our regular expert Dr Marc Mandelson in Cape Town, South Africa.

We’ll also go to Minneapolis where Derek Chauvin – who was convicted in April for the killing of George Floyd – will be sentenced today.
