The suspect in the Berlin Pride ramming attack, which killed at least one person on Saturday night, has been shot and killed by German officials. Police say 21-year-old Abdul Ballout was killed after he reportedly ran towards officers with a knife in a western borough of the country’s capital. We get all the details from a Berlin-based journalist. Also in the programme: The US ambassador to the UN says his country has halted strikes on Iran to give diplomacy more time; and a wildlife haven in South Sudan gets UNESCO World Heritage status, a first in the nation’s history.
