In the UK, a last-minute hearing is being held, over whether to stop the life support treatment of 12-year-old Archie Battersbee.

The Court of Appeal has granted a virtual hearing for 11am after the government asked it to "urgently consider" a request by the UN to continue treatment while it looks at the case.

The boy's in a comatose state with severe brain injuries.

Doctors are planning to turn off his support this afternoon.
