BBC World Service - BBC OS, Boris Johnson insists he won't resign

Mr Johnson has faced questions in the parliament over parties during lockdown

The British Prime Minister Boris Johnson is waiting to receive a report on lockdown parties at his Downing Street residence that could determine his political future. We explain the developments so far and hear about the questions Mr Johnson was facing during a stormy sesson in the House of Commons. 

We bring the latest on the Ukraine-Russia crisis and look at how some Russians in Moscow are viewing the situation on the border. 

We also talk through the latest stories on the pandemic with one of our regular experts, Dr Maria Sundaram from Marshfield Clinic in Wisconsin.

We look at the situation in the Syrian city of Hasakah where Kurdish forces have been fighting ISIS fighters for control of a prison.
