A woman sits on the street with piles of newspapers and gum for sale. The newspapers have the news that Nayib Bukele will be the next president of El Salvador.

Also, an immigrant family no longer faces immediate deportation from the Netherlands after a Dutch church gave them round-the-clock protection. And Facebook turns 15 years old today.  We hear how it has changed lives around the globe since its launch in 2004.
