COP28: Health at the top of the agenda for the UN climate conference

Health is at the top of the agenda on the fourth day of the UN climate conference in Dubai.

Ministers from more than 60 countries are meeting at the UN climate conference in Dubai to discuss the health challenges posed by global warming. It is the first time the agenda of the annual event has dedicated an entire day to public health.

Also in the programme: Israel concentrates its renewed offensive on the south of the Gaza Strip; and we hear about the border dispute between Guyana and Venezuela.
