BBC World Service - BBC OS, UN human rights report into Iran

We hear from three women who took part in the Iran fact finding mission.

The UN Human Rights Council has heard a report into human rights inside Iran, with a focus on women and children. We hear from three women who took part in that Iran fact finding mission.

We get the latest from our BBC correspondent Anna Foster in Jenin refugee camp, where funerals have been taking places after two days of violent clashes. Israel says it has ended its operation. Twelve Palestinians and one Israeli soldier have been killed. 

In India, dowries have been illegal since 1961, but the tradition persists. Now, a 27-year-old teacher in the central city of Bhopal has started a petition asking the police to deploy officers at marriage venues. She shares her story.

And we hear from teachers in the Netherlands where devices including mobile phones will be banned from classrooms to stop them from disrupting learning.
