At the same time, the number of Americans who have died from Covid continues to rise.

President Joe Biden has declared the pandemic is over in the US. At the same time, the number of Americans who have died from Covid continues to rise. We speak to two doctors for their analysis on where we are with Covid-19.

In Lebanon, there's an ongoing economic crisis. Recently there's been a string of raids by bank customers demanding access to their frozen savings. We speak to three people in Lebanon to hear about what life is like at the moment.

And since Ukraine retook Izyum there have been more allegations of Russian atrocities. A group of Sri Lankans who were held captive for months have told their story to the BBC - we hear from the reporter who interviewed them.
