BBC World Service - BBC OS, Chile-Peru border: Hundreds stranded

We explain why hundreds of people are stranded on the border between Chile and Peru

We explain why hundreds of people are stranded on the border between Chile and Peru.

We hear from someone who is stranded at the Peru-Chile border, trying to cross into Peru to continue on to Venezuela. Our reporter from BBC Mundo talks about the people he met at the border.

As fighting continues in Sudan, many families have tried to escape - though some have been unable to leave. We play a conversation with people who have had to leave family behind.

And Turkey says its military has killed the suspected leader of the Islamic State group, in Syria. Abu al-Hussein al-Qurashi is said to have taken over the group after his predecessor was killed last autumn. The head of BBC Monitoring's jihadist media team takes us through the story.

Presenter: James Reynolds.
