www.euronews.com Initial reports from Myanmar speak of more than a dozen people dead, following an earthquake in the centre of the Asian country. The quake of magnitude 6.8 hit early today more than 100 kilometres northwest of Mandalay according to the US Geological Survey. It is said to be the biggest earthquake in the region for 20 years. The humanitarian organisation Save The Children has counted 13 fatalities and 40 injured who have been admitted to local hospitals. Residents rushed from their homes and have been afraid to go back indoors for fear of further tremors. Local media say homes collapsed, as did a gold mine and a bridge under construction. The initial tremor was felt as far away as the Thai capital Bangkok. Two magnitude 5 aftershocks quickly followed. Earthquakes are not unknown in Burma. Last year dozens were killed by a strong quake near the borders with Laos and Thailand. Find us on: Youtube bit.ly Facebook www.facebook.com Twitter twitter.com

Home Secretary Theresa May has vowed to continue to do everything to 'get rid of' radical Muslim cleric Abu Qatada despite his release from prison today. The British government has been working for months to get Qatada - deemed as a 'dangerous man' and a 'huge security risk' - get deported to Jordan to faces charges of terrorism. Qatada, a Jordanian of Palestinian origin, was once described by a Spanish judge as "Osama bin Laden's right-hand man in Europe". He's been in and out of jail for 7 years without charge. And fears he'll be tortured in Jordan. Home Secretary Theresa May is furious over the last minute appeal, saying torture there is illegal. Despite these assurances, despite the determination of the Jordanian government and judiciary to allow Qatada, a fair trial, despite the change to the Jordanian constitution that expressly prohibits torture and the use of evidence obtained by torture in the absence of clear case law Mr Justice Mitting still found in Qatada, favour. In doing so we believe he applied the wrong legal test....The government has been doing everything that it can to get rid of Abu Qatada and we will continue to do so. Qatada will be released from Long Lartin prison in Worcestershire today and can go back to his current home in London, but he'll be under a strict 16 hour curfew.

The Arab League has hailed the formation of Syria's new rebel coalition, but stopped short of recognizing the group as the sole legitimate voice of the Syrian people. Leaders of Syria's exiled opposition, beset by mutual suspicion and infighting, formed the new bloc on Sunday and are now seeking full international backing. Political analyst Lew Rockwell believes that by offering full support for the Syrian coalition, foreign nations may be hijacking the initiative.

Israel rockets from Gaza leaders' responses Last weekend saw the most intense cycle of violence along the Israeli-Gaza border in nearly 4 years with Palestinian militants firing more than 70 rockets into the Jewish state. Israeli leaders have said they will not tolerate the increasing stream of attacks emanating from the Gaza Strip with Benjamin Netanyahu threatening to escalate the country's response if the rocket fire did not stop while Defense Minister Ehud Barak commented "If we are forced to go back into Gaza in order to hit Hamas and restore calm, we will not hesitate to do so." The mayor of Beersheba, a southern Israeli city targeted by Gaza based militants called on the government to put an end to the "war of attrition" between Israel and Palestinian terrorist groups while Israeli Ambassador the UN Ron Prosor slammed the UN's failure to comment on rocket attacks from Gaza. The violence has caused normal daily life in Israel to grind to a halt with many businesses being forced to close and children being unable to attend school. Perhaps sensitive to the lack of sympathy to Israelis' current struggles in the international news media US ambassador Daniel Shapiro sent best wishes directly to Israelis on Facebook and reaffirmed the United States' support for Israel's right to defend itself.

Nearly two million Afghan refugees living in Pakistan are waiting to find out whether they'll have to leave by the end of the year when their residency cards expire. Islamabad says it won't forcefully repatriate people once the deadline is up, but isn't offering any assurances they can stay either. For some Afghan refugees who have established lives in neighbouring Pakistan, the threat of return to Afghanistan, a nation many have not lived in for nearly three decades, is a fearful prospect as they would have to restart their lives in their homeland.

www.euronews.com ECOWAS troops with UN backing may soon be on their way into northern Mali following agreement at the UN. West Africa's regional bloc, meeting in Nigeria, agreed on Sunday to send 3300 troops, mostly from Nigeria, Burkina Fasso and Niger, and want to have battle plans ready for UN approval by the end of November. The force may be joined by other African nations, and two or three non-African states. "We are waiting for the green light from the UN Security Council which we expect hopefully by the end of this month, or the beginning of December, and the intervention forces will be in place a few days after that," said ECOWAS chairman and Ivory Coast President Alassane Outtara. The Malian government has appealed for help after losing the northern half of its territory to a now-fractured alliance of Tuareg rebels and Islamic militants. The former, along with Islamic group Ansar Dine are now in talks after infighting with al-Qaeda-affiliated groups. The Tuaregs rose after what they claim is years of neglect from Bamako, while Ansar Dine wants Sharia law for Mali's muslim north, but neither seem to want al-Qaeda taking over their struggle.
