    A vibrant account of the day’s events with explanation and reaction from those involved.

Two Jewish men have been stabbed in Golders Green, north London - the Metropolitan Police formally declare it a terrorist incident. Our correspondent explains. A protest against illegal immigration has taken place on Wednesday in Johannesburg. We speak to our correspondent there to explain why they are marching, and bring together people with lived experience of xenophobia in the country. And after Nepali mountaineers cleared a route past a huge chunk of ice on Mount Everest that has blocked climbers from moving up past Base Camp for two weeks, we speak to climbers and guides about how the rest of the season will be affected.
