On air: Unrest in the Arab World

Ros Atkins Ros Atkins | 13:15 UK time, Thursday, 17 February 2011

It's another day when our first and foremost responsibility is to speak to as many of you in the Arab world as we can about what's happening, how it's affecting you and your views of the different protests.

This topic was discussed on World Have Your Say on 17 February 2011. Listen to the programme.

For all the latest, check out the excellent 'livepage' on bbcnews.com. If you want more detail on each place where stories are developing...

- click here for details of the clampdown in Bahrain

- here for whether the 'Day of Anger' is materialising in Libya

- for details of the protests in the West Bank

- and here for details of yesterday's death of a one protestor after a sixth day of anti-government protests in Yemen

There's also interest in talking about whether America is being hypocritical in its responses to the different situations.

And we'll also discuss how reliable social media is proving as a source of information. As its influence grows and more and more people use twitter and facebook, can we rely on what we're being told?
