Chinese police files reveal details of Uyghur detention

We hear about the leak of thousands of photographs of Uyghur Muslims in detention.

Thousands of photos from China’s highly secretive system of mass incarceration of Uyghur Muslims and other Turkic minorities in its far-western Xinjiang region are among a huge cache of data hacked from police servers and handed to the ´óÏó´«Ã½. We speak to two Uyghur women who live elsewhere in the world.

Russian forces appear to be increasing the intensity of the operation in the eastern region of Donbass in Ukraine. We get the latest report from our correspondent in the region.

We speak to people in Iraq about their experiences of the ninth dust storm in less than two months in the country, and ask our weather expert about the causes and effects of dust storms.

We have been getting more listeners’ questions about the monkeypox outbreak and get another expert to answer some of them.
