Climate talks open in shadow of Trump victory

How will a Trump presidency affect the upcoming UN climate summit?

The UN climate summit is opening in Azerbaijan with 2024 set to be the first year to breach the 1.5C global warming limit.

Also on the programme: Russia and Ukraine attack each other with drones in their heaviest assault of the war; and Dutch police use a hologram of a sex worker murdered 15 years ago in a fresh bid to find her killer.
