We'll bring you the latest news lines from the Qatar World Cup

We'll bring you the latest news lines from the Qatar World Cup.

Iran's footballers have shown their support for protesters back home by refusing to sing the national anthem before their first match at the World Cup. We'll get the latest on today's games in Qatar and speak to a sports journalist from BBC Persian about the controversy surrounding Iran's team.

We’ll have the latest on the earthquake on the Indonesian island of Java that has killed more than 160 people. 

And, as shelling continues near Ukraine’s Zaporizhzia nuclear plant, we’ll speak to two Ukrainian mothers about how they are coping with ongoing power and water cuts.

South Africa is hosting the continent's first ever conference on clubfoot - that's when a baby is born with one or both feet twisted inwards. Our Global Health Correspondent has visited a clinic in Senegal to find out about treatment that's helping people with the condition.
