Tariffs: Retaliatory tariffs on US goods

China is raising tariffs on US imports to 84% as a trade war deepens between the world's two biggest economies. Member states of the European Union have also voted to impose reciprocal tariffs againt the United States. We speak to our correspondent in Thailand about the impact of the tariffs in the region.

We also bring together American business owners who rely on manufacturing or components from Asian countries and now face uncertain future.

Emergency workers in the Dominican Republic are still searching the ruins of a night club in which 124 people are now confirmed to have died after a roof collapsed on Tuesday. We hear from a journalist who has been speaking to eyewitnesses in Santo Domingo and from a man who is looking for his childhood friend who was inside the club.
