About 670 people are buried under a landslide and are feared dead in Papua New Guinea. The United Nations based its estimate on the number of houses believed to have been swamped by up to eight metres of rock, earth and trees. We speak to a reporter in the country.

Also in the programme: Another mass kidnapping in Nigeria. Amnesty International’s country director tells us the authorities should be doing more to protect people; and the King of Clay returns to the French open – but could it be game over for Rafael Nadal by year’s end?
