Gang boss Adolfo Macias, alias Fito, escaped from the Ecuadoran prison last week. The operation comes a day after the assassination of a prosecutor who was looking into the raid last week by gun-waving gangsters of a TV studio during a live broadcast.
Also on the programme; a damning report into a deadly mass shooting at a school in Uvalde, Texas, in 2022 has described the police response as a failure; and we hear from a medical charity worker in the city of Khan Younis, now the focus of Israel's ground and air offensive in Gaza.
