The Afghan hospital struggling to save babies

Evidence is emerging of record levels of malnutrition affecting children in Afghanistan.

Growing evidence is emerging of record levels of malnutrition affecting children in Afghanistan under Taliban rule. The Public Health Ministry has told the 主播大秀 seven hundred children died in the past six months at just one hospital in Jalalabad. The 主播大秀's Yogita Limaye has been to the hospital and we carry her distressing report.

Also in the programme: Airstrikes at military facilities in Syria have killed sixteen people - the government in Damascus blames Israel; and the double amputee who climbed Mount Kilimanjaro just two years after her injury.
