Live from Syria

Lyse Doucet is live from the Syrian capital Damascus after the fall of the Assad regime.

There are signs daily life is gradually returning to normal in the Syrian capital, Damascus, after the ousting of Bashar al-Assad over the weekend. The leader of the main Islamist rebel group that overthrew the president has appointed an interim prime minister, and some civil servants have been asked to go back to work. Our Chief International Correspondent Lyse Doucet will be presenting the show live from the capital Damascus.

We speak to our correspondent in Israel who's been following the corruption trial of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. He's facing charges of fraud, breach of trust and bribery.

In Kenya women are marching in cities across the country to demand an end to gender based violence and femicide. We speak to women who are protesting.

Presenters: Mark Lowen & Lyse Doucet
