Polls have closed in Syria, where the country is holding its first parliamentary elections since the toppling of the regime of Bashar al-Assad.

Instead, "electoral colleges" are selecting representatives for two-thirds of the seats with the Interim President Ahmed al-Sharaa appointing the rest.
- Guest: Heidi Pett, Australian freelance journalist in the northern Syrian city of Raqqa
- Producer: Anne Barker
