Jimmy Lai is one of Hong Kong's most prominent pro-democracy activists. He is due to be sentenced for his role in anti-government protests. We have a report from the Âé¶¹Éç’s Danny Vincent who has had exclusive access to Mr Lai over the past six months since his arrest. We go live to Iraq which is in the grips of its worst wave of the Covid pandemic. And we're in Mogadishu to hear about the tensions there after the president extended his term by two years.
