We get the latest on the conflict in Ethiopia’s Tigray region. The TPLF says its forces targeted airports in Gondar and Bahir Dar – in response to air strikes carried out by Ethiopian government forces. The United Nations says at least 20,000 refugees have crossed from Tigray into Sudan.

Plus, following a year-long investigation, BBC Africa Eye lifts the lid on the growing trade in stolen children in Kenya.

And we meet Innoss’B. The talented singer and dancer from Goma in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo who became a household name when he won a talent contest fronted by Akon at the age of just 12.
