Cairo's strained relations with Washington

This special programme is brought to you from Egypt, where millions of Egyptians are going to the polls to vote for their first post-revolution president. They are faced with a polarising choice between the Muslim Brotherhood’s Mohammed Morsi and the former Mubarak-era prime minister Ahmed Shafiq. Next, we look at the women of Egypt and how they continue to fight for their rights. Finally, we look at tourism in the country, which appears to be getting back on track.

A massacre in the Syrian town of Houla leaves scores of children dead and shocks the international community. Next, our reporters capture an emotional moment as one Egyptian woman goes to vote for the first time in the country’s presidential elections. Finally, in Tel Aviv, race riots spark a national debate on migrants in Israel.
