Opening statements at Trump trial
Donald Trump has again denounced his criminal trial as a witch-hunt.
Opening statements have been getting under way at Donald Trump's historic criminal trial in New York. The former president denies falsifying accounts to hide hush money paid to a porn actress. Before entering court Mr Trump said it was a very sad day for America. We explain who will be making an appearance in the case and speak to our correspondent covering today's proceedings in New York.

We speak to two people who became digital nomads and are travelling with their families.
We hear from the Kenyan Olympic champion Peres Jepchirchir, who won the London Marathon in a new women's-only world record time - the fastest time in a race without male pace makers.
In the UK, the government is hoping to finally pass a piece of legislation that would allow some asylum-seekers to be moved to Rwanda. We speak to our correspondent in Rwanda.
