The devastating earthquake that hit south-eastern Afghanistan on June 22 has caused immeasurable damage.

International aid is trickling in, but longer-term help is needed. Our regional correspondents Shahzaib Wahlah and Sonia Ghezali report.

A violent attack on several women in northern China earlier this month has raised questions over gender-based violence in the country.

For more on women's safety and their rights in China, we talk to Professor Maria Jaschok from the University of Oxford.
