The former president is facing four federal criminal charges in this indictment.

Donald Trump is due to appear in a federal court in Washington for allegedly plotting to overturn the twenty-twenty presidential election. He faces four counts, including conspiracy to defraud the United States. We speak to our correspondent outside the court.

There has been a rally in the capital Niamey in Niger in support of the coup that toppled the democratically elected government. We hear more from our Africa correspondent.
