The United Kingdom is experiencing almost a week of violent disorder after three girls were fatally stabbed in the town of Southport, in England. The subsequent unrest in towns and cities has been fuelled by misinformation online, the far-right and anti-immigration sentiment. How did the UK get to this point?

Also, why does Lesotho have the highest suicide rates in the world?

And Somalia sentences seven young Tik Tok users to jail for 'indecency' and 'incitement'.

Presenter: Audrey Brown Producer: Sunita Nahar, Bella Hassan, Frenny Jowi and Rob Wilson Technical Producer: Chris Ablakwa Senior Journalist: Karnie Sharp Editors: Andre Lombard and Alice Muthengi
