A virus expert answers audience questions about the outbreak. We also speak to journalists who have covered previous Ebola outbreaks. An intense heatwave is scorching large areas of India - including the capital, Delhi. We speak to our environment correspondent. Our sports reporter talks through today's headlines, including the news that Manchester City's long- standing manager, Pep Guardiola, is leaving.
