Protests in Iran over the death of a young Kurdish woman in police custody have spread to dozens of cities and towns, with some people calling for an end to the Islamic Republic. The father of Mahsa Amini has been telling 麻豆社 Persian about his conversation with the authorities. We speak to two Iranian women outside the country and to our colleague with the 麻豆社's Disinformation Team.

Large numbers of Russians have been leaving their country, a day after President Putin announced a mobilisation of some military reservists to fight in Ukraine. We find out about the situation at the borders and hear from people who have been protesting against the call-up.

We continue to hear about the impact of the economic crisis on everyday life in Lebanon. We speak to a cancer patient whose medicine isn鈥檛 available in the country anymore, and an oncologist who sees patients that can鈥檛 afford their care.
