DRC conflict: What's happening in Goma?
Our correspondent is in the city of Goma, three weeks after it fell to M23 rebels.
In the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo, M23 rebel fighters are continuing their advance amid a growing humanitarian crisis. Three weeks ago they took control of the city of Goma, thousands of people died in the process. Our senior international correspondent Orla Guerin has been to Goma to see what's happening there now.
The US and Russia will appoint teams to negotiate ending the Ukraine war, the US State Department says, following high-level talks in Saudi Arabia. No Ukrainian officials were invited to the talks, and Ukraine has criticised them. We speak to our correspondents across the region to hear how these talks might play out.
It's been almost 3 years since Russia invaded Ukraine. We connect with three people we spoke to at the start of the invasion to hear how their lives have changed and how they feel about the future.
