British Foreign Minister William Hague said in a conference in Poland on Saturday that the European Union is capable of strengthening sanctions on Syria after deciding to impose sanctions on the country's oil exports. "They are very significant sanctions, they affect 25 percent of the revenue of the Syrian regime, so these area very substantial sanctions and they come on top of five previous rounds of sanctions, of assets freezes and travel bans on individuals in Syria who we believe are responsible for the violence that is taking place. So these are serious measures and I believe they will be taken very seriously by the Syrian regime. That does not of course preclude further measures being taken in the future there will be ways of further increasing that pressure in the future," said Hague. However, he did say that it was possible for President Bashar al-Assad to look elsewhere to export oil. On Friday, Syrian security forces shot at anti-government demonstrators in Douma, a suburb of the capital, Damascus, according to footage uploaded on a social media website. Al Arabiya cannot independently verify the footage, as Syria has banned foreign media in the country. Mass protests erupted in various rural areas, due to the heavy presence of army forces in urban towns, according to activists. International pressure continues to grow on the Syrian president while violent protest crackdowns evidently persist. Various rights groups estimate the death toll to over 2000. By Noora <b>...</b>

Turkey has expelled the Israeli ambassador and suspended military ties with the country. The government in Ankara is angry at Israel's refusal to apologise for last year's attack on boats bound for Gaza. Nine Turks were killed when the Israeli army intercepted an aid ship. The United Nations is to release its report into the incident. An early copy seen by Al Jazeera criticises Israel for using excessive and unreasonable force - but also says they faced violent resistance. Al Jazeera's Cal Perry has more from Jerusalem.

Libya's new rebel leaders are seeking to restore order in Tripoli, encouraging fighters to return home. The National Transitional Council will move to the capital from its stronghold of Benghazi within the next week. Although, Colonel Gaddafi remains at large and some parts of the country are still under the control of his loyalist fighters. NATO continues aerial strikes on Gaddafi troops near his home city of Sirte, saying the UN mandate to protect civilians still stands. The coalition's also moving to release billions of dollars of the former leader's frozen assets, to fund reconstruction. And while most Libyans are enjoying the first taste of revolutionary freedom, there are some accusations that NATO states are looting the vast oil riches.

A London-based human rights group claims around five hundred people have been killed in Syria during Ramadan, the majority of them, civilians. Another group of activists released a report, suggesting dozens of people, including children, have been tortured to death behind bars for taking part in the anti-regime uprising. James Corbett, who's an Osaka-based editor of the independent news website www.corbettreport.com - believes the latest report on prison casualties is one sided, but says this is to be expected in an era of media manipulation.

Earlier this week, the House passed its own extension of provisions of the terrorist surveillance program set to expire at the end of the month. The Senate late Tuesday passed a three-month extension of provisions of the USA Patriot Act as Congress works to avoid a lapse of elements of the terrorist surveillance program that expire at the end of the month. Senate Democrats are hoping to avoid interjecting the national security issue into the 2012 presidential campaign by sending their bill to the Republican-led House, which earlier this week overcame opposition from conservative lawmakers to pass an extension through Dec. 8. The Senate voted 86-12 to extend three expiring provisions of the act that became law after the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Two Republicans, "tea-party"-backed Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) and Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), joined Democrats in voting against the bill. Extending the expiring provisions encountered a political setback last week in the House as conservative and tea-party-inspired lawmakers joined Democrats in the House to oppose the measure they see as an overreach of government authority. Republican leaders have sought a permanent extension, which now appears politically difficult. www.latimes.com ORIGINAL UPLOAD from here www.youtube.com § 107.
