Haiti's powerful gangs which control more than 80 percent of the capital Port-au-Prince have already voiced their opposition to the transitional presidential council. They warned they will continue to attack government targets unless an interim administration acceptable to them is created. We ask a former minister recently appointed by the council how the country can be saved from collapse.
Antony Blinken has warned that Gaza's entire population is facing acute food insecurity. We hear from one of the aid agencies and an Israeli spokesperson about the humanitarian situation in Gaza.
Also in the programme: we speak to the singer of the anarchist band Chumbawumba who refuses his music to be associated with right-wing political parties; and we ask the mayor of Yellowknife in Canada how she is preparing for wildfire season.
