For the first time since the COVID pandemic, Western journalists have been inside Xinjiang - the province which is home to the native Uyghurs - a mostly Muslim community of around 12 million people. They've lived in the area for several hundred years.

Human rights groups as well as the UK and US governments have accused China of committing genocide against Uyghurs in the region. The United Nations also said in 2018 that they believe China had detained around one million of the minority group in camps against their will.

On the Sky News Daily, Leah Boleto speaks to Helen-Ann Smith - Sky's Asia correspondent who recently visited some of these camps - and to Sky's Tom Cheshire, who was covering the region for nearly five years and is now our data and forensics correspondent.
