Rival protests in Seoul as impeached president continues to resist arrest
Thousands of supporters and opponents of the South Korea's suspended president have been on the streets of Seoul for a second day.
Thousands of rival demonstrators have been protesting in South Korea's capital Seoul where the impeached president President Yoon Suk Yeol is refusing to hand himself in to investigators.
Also on the programme: Venezuela's opposition leader, Edmundo Gonzalez, is touring South America ahead of the inauguration of Nicolas Maduro who he insists lost last year's presidential election; and we ask - after 15 months of war - is there anywhere in Gaza where Palestinians can still get medical treatment?
And we'll hear the sound of a prison choir from Mississippi.
