New York paralysed by floodwaters

Heavy overnight rains have left parts of New York City under water. The mayor of New York, Eric Adams, has declared an emergency in the city. Also on the programme: President Putin’s plans to bring Wagner mercenaries under the control of the government; and police in Las Vegas arrest a man in connection with the murder of hip-hop icon Tupac Shakur.
