Turkey deports suspected German and British ISIL members
Turkey begins to deport ISIL suspects, as western countries deliberate what to do with them and their families.
NATO allies of Turkey in Europe have been worried that Turkey's offensive last month into a Syrian border area could lead to ISIL suspects and their families escaping from prisons and camps run by Kurdish forces. Ankara has dismissed the concerns.
Turkish authorities said on Monday they had begun to send ISIL detainees back to their home countries, deporting a German and a US citizen.
Thousands of ISIL fighters were jailed in the Kurdish-controlled territory after the collapse of the ISIL "caliphate" in 2017, and tens of thousands of their relatives are kept in camps there.
Turkey has said it will send some detained fighters to Ireland, Denmark and France in the coming days.
Amid protests, Iraq's top Shia leader calls for new election law
Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani says fresh poll needed to end Iraq's deepening, deadly political crisis.
More than 300 people have been killed and thousands of others wounded since the protests erupted at the start of October, sparked by widespread anger over official corruption, mass unemployment and failing public services.
The demonstrations have gripped Baghdad and several cities in Iraq's south, posing the biggest challenge yet to the year-old government of Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi, who has moved to try and quell the unrest by pledging to reshuffle his cabinet and deliver a package of reforms.

Demonstrators marched towards the Presidential Palace in Baabda, incensed by President Michel Aoun's assertion in a televised interview on Tuesday that if those demonstrating "see no decent people in this state, let them emigrate. They won't get into power".
As the country enters its second month of continuous demonstrations, banks remain closed after workers went on strike, fearing for their safety after several tellers were attacked by customers, angry at unofficial capital controls being imposed by individual banks.
Universities and schools remain closed until further notice, and petrol stations have begun to ration fuel or have closed, saying their reserves will run out within a week. Aoun warned the country is heading for "catastrophe", but in his third speech in as many weeks, offered no concrete solutions to protesters' gripes.
Pelosi accuses Trump of bribery as impeachment inquiry proceeds
House of Representatives Speaker Pelosi dismisses Trump's denials of wrongdoing as impeachment inquiry intensifies.
Democrats are looking into whether the Republican president abused his power by withholding $391m in US security aid to Ukraine as leverage to pressure Kyiv to conduct two investigations that would benefit him politically.
The inquiry threatens Trump's presidency even as he seeks re-election in November 2020. If the House approves articles of impeachment - formal charges - against Trump, the Senate would then hold a trial on whether to convict him and remove him from office. Republicans control the Senate and have shown little support for Trump's removal.
The focus of the inquiry is a July 25 phone call in which Trump asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to investigate Democratic rival Joe Biden and the former vice president's son, Hunter, who had served as a board member for a Ukrainian energy company called Burisma.
Chile to hold referendum on new constitution
In a win for protesters, government agrees for vote to be held in April 2020 on replacing the Pinochet-era constitution.
However, it does not establish the state's responsibility to provide education and healthcare, two demands made by the millions of Chileans who have taken to the streets.
Legislators in Chile's National Congress agreed on Friday to hold the plebiscite in April 2020 after hours of negotiations between the governing coalition and opposition parties.
The referendum will ask voters whether the constitution should be replaced and if so, how a new charter should be drafted, Senate President Jaime Quintana said.

Aviones de combate israelíes atacan posiciones de la resistencia palestina en la Franja de Gaza
El portavoz de la Jihad Islámica, Mussab al-Barim, declaró la entrada en vigor del acuerdo de alto al fuego después que la ocupación cedió a las condiciones de la resistencia palestina.
Agregó que después que la resistencia dio su palabra, desató una nueva agresión. Señaló que "el garante de ese acuerdo es la resistencia y su preparación en el campo, así como su capacidad para responder a cualquier agresión, además del esfuerzo de la hermana Egipto, que patrocinó la mediación.
"(Israel) ha demostrado que está disuadido y la última batalla no se registrará a favor de su gloria"
Los medios israelíes consideraron que al aceptar el alto al fuego, (Israel) demostró a sus enemigos que fue la parte disuadida y no la Jihad Islámica, y que la batalla reciente en Gaza es como sus predecesores, no se registrará en la historia a favor de "la gloria del Estado de (Israel)".
Al-Assad: Nos quejaremos ante el Consejo de Seguridad de que EEUU roba petróleo sirio, aunque las quejas permanezcan en cajones
En declaraciones a "Rusia 24" y "Rusia Segudnia", Al-Assad manifestó que "todas las quejas presentadas ante las Naciones Unidas permanecen en los cajones, porque hay un semi-estado (estadounidense) gobernado por pandillas y actúa según el principio de la fuerza, y como solíamos decir antes, son un grupo de ladrones y su lucha entre sí es una lucha por ganancias y pérdidas".
"El conflicto interno estadounidense no es una lucha de doctrinas o un conflicto de partidos como parece. Me refiero a los conflictos que tienen lugar entre Trump y otros en Estados Unidos, son conflictos por el botín y las ganancias, así que nosotros vivimos en un mundo similar a la jungla, más cerca del mundo anterior a la Segunda Guerra Mundial… por lo tanto, enviaremos la queja, pero ella permanecerá en los cajones".
En cuanto a la presencia militar rusa en Siria, Al-Assad señaló que ella está dentro del marco del equilibrio global, y subrayó que "la fuerza militar rusa es necesaria para el equilibrio en el mundo, por un lado, y para la lucha contra el terrorismo".
Asimismo, consideró que las declaraciones turcas crearían un conflicto por motivos étnicos, y que el verdadero objetivo de Turquía es traer a los terroristas armados que estaban luchando en Siria y que fueron derrotados y transportados a esa región con sus familias "para crear una nueva sociedad extremista que sirva a la visión del presidente Recep Tayyip Erdogan".
