BBC World Service - Newshour, Wildfires ravage central Chile

The Chilean president, Gabriel Boric, has declared a state of emergency as fires claim lives and devour forests and homes across the centre of the country. We hear from a reporter from one of the worst-affected cities. 

Also in the programme: controversial elections in El Salvador; and memories of the early days of the Beatles as the estate of one of their first members, Stuart Sutcliffe, goes up for sale.
