The latest on US drone strike in Afghanistan

We continue to hear the latest developments after Sunday's US drone strike in the Afghan capital, Kabul. Targeting a suicide bomber, the US strike ended up killing 10 members of one family, including six children, surviving relatives have told the BBC. We get the latest from our colleagues at BBC Afghan.

We'll go to Shenzen in China to hear about new regulations being brought in to restrict the hours of gaming done by under 18s.

And we'll have an update from Louisiana where more than a million homes are without power as Hurricane Ida churns slowly inland towards Mississippi.
