President Biden leaves Saudi Arabia after meeting Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman. We hear from the son of an adviser to the previous Crown Prince, on what he claims is a 'vindictive, transnational repression campaign' waged on his family, including the incarceration of his younger siblings.

Also in the programme: the UN along with the Ethiopian government agrees to help rebuild the rebellious northern province of Tigray, but the authorities there find it 'mindboggling' they have not been consulted; and an extreme heatwave is sweeping across large areas of Europe provoking wildfires.
