Description

A BBC investigation has found that the number of illegal Israeli settler outposts in the occupied West Bank has risen rapidly in recent years.

Documents seen by the BBC also show that sanctioned settlers have been supported by an organisation funded by the Israeli government.

Also on the programme: why did Mongolian authorities fail to arrest Russian President Vladimir Putin? And Catholics in Indonesia welcome Pope Francis as he embarks on his longest tour yet.
