The military governor of the Democratic Republic of Congo's Ituri province, the epicentre of the current Ebola outbreak, has likened the struggle to contain the spread of the virus to a "war" for which they are lacking resources to fight. We speak to aid workers about the situation on the ground. Traffic police in the Indian capital Delhi are being given solar-powered air-conditioned helmets because of blistering heat, with the month of May hotter even than usual. We speak to our weather team and hear messages from places facing heatwaves around the world, including India. Almost 90 drones fell from the sky over Sydney's Darling Harbour during a popular winter light show, with footage showing devices splashing into the water, close to crowds. We have a conversation with drone show organisers about how their displays work. Presenter: Rahul Tandon.
