Crackdown Follows Paris Killings

Governments in several European countries run security raids on suspected Islamist terrorists in the wake of the Paris attacks on Charlie Hebdo magazine and a Jewish supermarket

Authorities across Europe tighten security after the Islamist killings in Paris - but are they doing just what terrorists want? The Charlie Hebdo magazine itself returns to the news-stands with a hugely-increased print-run - and a cartoon of a weeping prophet Mohammed on its cover, offending more Muslims around the world. We examine the tricky interfaces between religion, culture and nationality.

Also, the school in Pakistan where the Taliban killed more than 140 people re-opens its doors; fighting intensifies in Ukraine; and the spiritual experience of climbing a sheer rock face for 19 days.
