Severe rainfall in September over the Moroccan Sahara has left the desert sand dunes inundated.
Some areas of southeastern Morocco saw more than a year’s worth of rainfall in just two days.
According to experts the area is not usually affected by rainfall from the Inter Tropical Front, which usually affects the Malian and Mauritanian Sahara.

Father-of-two Mouhamed has never been to sea, but he is about to take what is fast becoming the deadliest migrant journey in the world: the Atlantic crossing from West Africa to Spain’s Canary Islands.
Facing days, even weeks, on the open ocean, this year more than 70,000 irregular migrants and refugees are expected to attempt this perilous journey, many of them in overcrowded wooden boats.
From Senegal, Mouhamed will have to survive the treacherous crossing with little more than a handful of biscuits and a few bottles of water, all to achieve his dream of making it to the southern border of Europe. For all those who make it to the Canaries, there will be thousands who die trying. It’s a tragedy unfolding in real time, buried under world headlines.
In this hard-hitting investigation, #BBCAfricaEye reporter Mame Cheikh Mbaye takes viewers into the secretive world of migrants hoping to escape conflict and extreme poverty in Senegal and neighbouring countries, and what they hope will be a brighter future in Europe.
Mame Cheikh follows Mouhamed as he prepares himself for a journey that, one way or another, will alter the trajectory of his life forever. Negotiating with the criminals organising the crossing, getting ready without alerting police suspicion, before finally receiving the call from his smuggler to head to a secret hideout in preparation for a midnight departure. Mouhamed’s story intimately captures his journey, the viewer is with him throughout, including when he is in an open boat en route to the Canary Islands.
Mame Cheikh also talks to the families who have lost loved ones while attempting the crossing, secures rare access to the smugglers organising the migrant boats and meets with the Spanish authorities who are on the front line disrupting the criminal networks involved in this deadly trade. Throughout the film, he explores some of the motivations which are driving tens of thousands onto the boats in search of what they think could be a better life… only for many to perish, turning the Atlantic Ocean into a mass grave.

Most survivors of sexual violence in the conflict-ridden area of Goma are treated in displacement camps near, where populations continue to swell amid ongoing clashes between rival groups. The female survivors who walk into health facilities bring stones as a way to "share" the ordeal they faced, while bypassing stigmas around it.
The BBC’s Mercy Juma visited Goma and spoke with some of the survivors.

Award-winning Cape Verdean rapper Ga DaLomba investigates ‘Highway 10’. This drug trafficking route is named after the 10th parallel North, the circle of latitude which charts the shortest sea-faring route across the Atlantic from South America to Africa.
According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, at least fifty tonnes of cocaine crosses West Africa every year with most arriving via Highway 10, but around 30% of the drugs are sold during transit.
As a result, Cape Verde has become known as a ‘motorway service station’ for traffickers, with Europe’s 11 billion dollar cocaine market often the final destination.
Ga DaLomba, himself a recovering cocaine addict, meets dealers and law enforcement officers in Cape Verde who have all witnessed a massive influx of cocaine, with the number of addicts also increasing.
Ga then searches for an alleged drug trafficker, a British man known as ‘Fox’, who Brazilian police believe used ‘Highway 10’ to transport one tonne of cocaine...and is yet to face justice. Ga’s search for ‘Fox’ takes him to Norwich in the UK where the allegations are put to him.

In the hope of raising awareness of their collective situation, he was given unprecedented access to a world of danger, drug addiction and even death.
Activists estimate that there are more than 20,000 women engaged in sex work in Sierra Leone - a situation fuelled by high unemployment, a crippling cost-of-living crisis, and the lingering trauma of the country’s ten-year civil war.
Over the course of four years, Tyson documented the perils sex workers are forced to navigate daily, from extreme violence and disease to the crippling effects of ‘kush’ - a powerful street drug that has wreaked havoc among the youth of Sierra Leone.
Worse still is the threat from human traffickers, who have lured countless women into sexual slavery abroad, either by force or with false promises of better jobs.

Chidimma Adetshina, who was a finalist in the Miss South Africa beauty contest, sparked criticism as despite being a South African citizen, her father is Nigerian and her mother has Mozambican roots.
She quit the contest last month - the day after the home affairs department announced that her mother may have committed "identity theft" to become a South African national.
Ms Adetshina was then invited to enter Miss Universe Nigeria - which she won - but said she had been "suppressing her emotions" throughout.

In the late 1980s, private security guard Louis van Schoor fatally shot dozens people in the South African city of East London. All of his victims were black. The youngest was just 12 years old.
It is a bloodbath that places Van Schoor among the most prolific killers in history. He was caught and arrested in 1991. But with many of his shootings signed off by local police as ‘justifiable homicides,’ he would receive a shockingly light sentence - serving only 12 years in jail. Decades have past, but the relatives of his victims have never found closure.
How many people did Van Schoor really kill? And who else was involved?
It's been thirty years since the white supremacist apartheid regime crumbled. The unresolved trauma of this time has cast a long shadow across a nation.
In piecing together the story of Van Schoor, this #BBCAfricaEye investigation exposes the disturbed past and racial injustices of South Africa itself.

At least one elderly person loses their life every week in the name of witchcraft along Kenya’s stunning Kilifi coast.
Violent attacks on supposed witches occur across swathes of Africa and beyond, but the estimated 70 deaths reported here every year are about much more than fear of the supernatural.
Meeting victims, relatives and even perpetrators, #BBCAfricaEye investigates the real motives fuelling these brutal incidents and the impunity that often enables them, revealing that many elderly victims are targeted not by strangers, but the very people who should be protecting them - their own families.
