Police clash with students in Johannesburg over tuition fee hikes

In tonight's edition: violence in Mali, student protests in South Africa and fashion in Liberia.

Another deadly attack by Islamist militants hits the north of Mali. A solider is killed near Timbuktu, a day after two UN peacekeepers died in an attack in the Kidal region.

Also, police clash with students at universities in South Africa. The students are calling for free education - they say fees are maintaining apartheid-era inequality.

And African fashion is making a comeback in Liberia. We meet the designers behind the homegrown couture boom.
