Major General Adeniyi Oyebade told reporters Monday that Ibraheem Zakzaky and his wife have been taken into custody after raids on at least three locations.
Saudi Arabia announced Tuesday what it called a new Islamic military alliance to fight terrorism. That alliance would include 34 countries. It would have an operation center in Riyadh to coordinate military operations.
Policy-makers at the U.S. central bank, the Federal Reserve, started a two-day meeting in Washington Tuesday. Analysts predict the Fed will increase the benchmark interest rate for the first time in nearly a decade.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David Byrd reporting. The FBI announces it is officially investigating this week's massacre in California as an act of terrorism.
The assistant chief of the FBI's Los Angeles office, David Bowdich, said Friday a number of pieces of evidence, including crushed cell phones found near the massacre, have turned up to make officials believe it was a terrorist act.
"We have retained those cell phones and we do continue to exploit the data from those cell phones. We do hope that the digital fingerprints that were left by these two individuals will take us towards their motivation.”
In Washington, FBI Director James Comey said that investigators are working to understand the electronic record of the two attackers.
"There is much about this that doesn't make sense [to even] for even those of us who do this for a living. That is the reason we have hundreds of people running down leads all over the world on this and spending tremendous amounts of time, as we sit here trying to understand the electronic record around these two killers.”
David Chesley is an attorney for the family of Syed Rizwan Farook. He criticized the FBI's characterization of his client as a terrorist as premature, saying he has not seen solid evidence that either Farook or his wife were connect to terrorism.
"When the FBI chief has literally come out and said that they found no link to a larger terrorist group or a terrorist cell, I think people need to listen to that and consider that.”
Farook and his wife, Tashfeen Malik, killed 14 people and wounded 21 others at a Christmas party on Wednesday. The couple was killed in a gunbattle with police.

Turkish troops have entered Iraq, for what U.S. officials say appears to be training exercises with Iraqi anti-Islamic State forces.
The troops crossed the border about 30 kilometers from Islamic State-held territory near Mosul.
A Turkish official told Reuters the troops were in the Mosul Bashiqa region for "routine training exercises.”
U.S. officials confirmed the move late Friday, saying one Turkish battalion had positioned itself on the Iraqi side of the border.
Turkish media reported the deployment, which included tanks and other armored vehicles, was part of a regular turnover. The new troops were replacing Turkish special forces that had previously been training anti-Islamic State fighters in the area.
Germany's parliament has overwhelmingly voted to send military aid to fight Islamic State militants in Syria.
Germany will send Tornado reconnaissance jets, a frigate, refueling aircraft and up to 1,200 military personnel to join the coalition against Islamic State.
However, German pilots will not fly sorties against Islamic State targets.
French President François Hollande had asked the international community to escalate the fight against Islamic State after the group claimed responsibility for last month's attack that left 130 people dead in Paris.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Friday it might be possible for Syrian rebels and government forces to battle Islamic State without Syrian President Bashar al-Assad leaving power.
Speaking in Athens Friday, Kerry said that all sides in the Syrian civil war will only cooperate in fighting Islamic State if they are confident that a mutually acceptable solution about the Syrian leader's future is in sight.
"But it would be exceedingly difficult to cooperate without some indication or confidence on the part of those who have been fighting him that in fact there is a resolution or a solution in sight.”
A senior State Department official said that Kerry's comments in Athens do not represent a shift in U.S. policy.
The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries decided not to cut oil production at a contentious meeting in Vienna on Friday.
The decision comes at a time when a surplus of oil on global markets has driven prices down from $100 a barrel to about $40 a barrel in the last 18 months.
The U.S. economy had a net gain of 211,000 jobs in November while the unemployment rate held steady at 5 percent.
The job gains are stronger than most economists expected and support the case for the central bank to raise a key interest rate later this month.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Ray Kouguell reporting. Russia announces change in Syrian strategy.
President Vladimir Putin says his country is now in support of leading Western-backed opposition group in joint operations with Syrian troops against Islamic State militants.
At a meeting with his top Defense Ministry officials Friday, President Putin said for the first time Russia provided air cover, weapons and supplies to the Free Syrian Army, which has long been fighting government troops.
If confirmed, it will represent a major policy shift for Russia.
Negotiators at the U.N. climate conference in Paris expect to have a final draft agreement to curb global warming by Saturday morning Paris time.
Negotiators from the 196 countries cannot reach a deal by the Friday deadline. Lisa Bryant reports.
Much of Friday's negotiations took place behind closed doors but there were a few announcements, including that Brazil has joined the so-called "high ambition coalition." That's a group of more than 100 developing and developed countries, including the United States pushing for an ambitious climate deal.
Foreign Minister Tony de Brum of the Marshall Islands, one of the countries most vulnerable to climate change, welcomed Brazil's move.
"We responded, we want to work with countries concerned about ambition and differentiation and welcome Brazil. Having you on board is essential to our success.”
Lisa Bryant, for VOA news, Paris.
Gunmen in Burundi launched coordinated attacks on three military bases in the capital Friday, sparking gunbattles that left at least 12 of the attackers dead.
A Burundian army spokesman said five soldiers were wounded and the 21 attackers were captured along with some arms and explosives.
This is VOA news.
Police in Ethiopia say a hand grenade was thrown in a mosque in the capital of Addis Ababa Friday, wounding at least six people.
The explosion went off just after evening prayers at Anwar Mosque in a predominately Muslim neighborhood.
There has been no claim of responsibility.
The Taliban, meanwhile, claimed responsibility for a car bombing and gunfire that struck a diplomatic neighborhood of Kabul Friday.
Afghan police say at least two people were killed, including a Spanish policeman. Several others were wounded. A nearby hospital run by an Italian charity reports it treated seven victims.
A Taliban spokesman told VOA that a guest house was the target because he says it was being used for military activities and intelligence sharing.
Pakistan fired a nuclear-capable missile Friday, just two days after hosting a regional peace conference with archrival India.
The military said the surface-to-surface ballistic Shaheen III missile has a range of more than 2,700 kilometers and can carry both nuclear and conventional warheads.
The military did not disclose the location of the test.
Authorities arrested two Syrian nationals in Geneva Friday when traces of explosives were found in their vehicle.
Authorities in the Geneva region had been searching for four suspected jihadists with alleged ties to Islamic State, but police did not say whether Friday's arrests were connected to the search.
Swiss police increased terror alert level in the city on Thursday.
United Nations and international agencies welcomed the arrival in Toronto, Canada, of a first group of Syrian refugees for settlement.
They traveled from Beirut, Lebanon, and are the first of 25,000 Syrians to be resettled in Canada by early next year. Lisa Schlein reports.
The Syrians who arrived on a Royal Canadian Air Force jet are mainly from Aleppo and Damascus. Both Syrian cities have undergone heavy bombing and deprivation since the war began in 2011.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau greeted the 163 refugees upon their arrival Thursday night.
The refugees who will begin their new life under a recently announced humanitarian program were given permanent residence papers and social insurance numbers on arrival.
To date, some 30 countries have pledged to resettle an estimated 160,000 Syrians.
Lisa Schlein, for VOA news, Geneva.
The United States and Cuba have agreed to reestablish direct postal service, which was cut more than five decades ago at the height of the Cold War.
The two countries announced Friday that they will launch a pilot program in the coming weeks. They did not give a date for when service will be permanently restored.
The announcement comes almost a year after President Barack Obama and Cuba's President Raul Castro announced that the two countries would renew diplomatic relations.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting.
The husband and wife who shot 14 people to death at a California holiday party Thursday had 12 pipe bombs, bomb-making materials and thousands of rounds of ammunition in their apartment.
The biggest question left for investigators is why the couple did what they did.
David Bowdich is the assistant director of the FBI's Los Angeles office. "We are trying to determine the motive, we do not yet know the motive, we cannot rule anything out at this point.”
Syed Rizwan Farook and his wife, Tashfeen Malik, were killed in a shootout with police near the handicapped training center where they shot and killed 14 people and wounded 21.
British fighter jets have carried out the first airstrikes in Syria targeting the Islamic State following a vote in parliament. Henry Ridgwell reports.
Just hours after military action was approved, four British Tornado jets took off from their base in Cyprus to attack Islamic State targets in Syria. The first bombs were dropped on the Omar oil refineries in the east that it's believed were used to fund the terror group.
Britain has sent eight further jets to its base in Cyprus as the bombing campaign intensifies.
Henry Ridgwell, London.
Fighting was reported in central Somalia Thursday a day after the leaders of the rival Puntland and Galmudug administrations signed a peace agreement.
Medical officials say at least 10 people were killed, more than 30 wounded.
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged negotiators at climate change talks in Paris to adopt a universal agreement to begin alleviating the effects of global warming. The U.N. chief spoke to reporters before returning to Paris Thursday to rejoin the conference.
Conferees hope to have an agreement by the end of the week.
This is VOA news.
Switzerland's Justice Ministry has identified FIFA vice presidents Alfredo Hawit and Juan Ángel Napout as the two Latin Americans arrested Thursday in the latest raids targeting officials of the world football organization.
The ministry said both men opposed their extradition to the United States. Swiss officials indicate the U.S. suspects the men of accepting bribes worth millions of dollars.
South Africa's Supreme Court of Appeal has convicted double amputee athlete Oscar Pistorius of murder, overturning his earlier conviction of culpable homicide, a less serious charge.
"The accused's conviction and sentence on count one are set aside and replaced with the following: guilty of murder, with the accused having had criminal intent in the form of dolus eventualis.”
The court announced its ruling Thursday in the case of the Olympic star who was convicted last year of the 2013 shooting death of his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp.
The judge said regardless of whether Pistorius thought he was shooting an unknown intruder or knew it was his girlfriend, he should have known his actions would cause death.
U.S. women soldiers will be able to drive tanks and fire mortars in the near future. The Pentagon is planning to open all combat positions to women beginning in the new year.
U.S. Secretary of Defense Ashton Carter made the announcement Thursday. "I'm directing all the military services to proceed to open all military occupational specialties to women 30 days from today." :Ashton Carter.
The head of the U.S. central bank told Congress Thursday a growing economy is boosting employment and rising toward a healthier rate of inflation.
Federal Reserve Chairman Janet Yellen said the economy is moving toward the Fed's two percent inflation target rate. She said this seemed to indicate that a rate hike is coming unless economic indicators turn sharply worse.
Fed officials have been considering an interest rate increase for a long time.
The U.S. House of Representatives has adjourned until next week without reaching an agreement on a government spending bill. A spending measure has to be passed by both the House and the Senate by December 11 to avoid a partial government shutdown.
Among the policy issues causing controversy are deregulation measures Democrats say would undo provisions to protect the nation's clean air and water, and measures on Syrian and Iraqi refugees.
President Obama says he will veto any bill that halts the resettlement of Iraqi and Syrian refugees.
A Turkish official says the foreign ministers of Turkey and Russia met Thursday on the sidelines of a Europe security meeting. It was their first high-level bilateral talks since Turkey downed a Russian fighter jet last month.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Syrian opposition groups agree on a framework for possible talks.
More than 100 representatives wrapped up a meeting in Riyadh Thursday with a plan for holding talks with the government of President Bashar al-Assad. The group still needs to pick its representatives for a negotiating team.
The U.S. military says the coalition fighting Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria has killed the group's finance minister and two other senior leaders.
Spokesman Steve Warren said Thursday the attacks killed Abu Salah, the Islamic State's finance minister, and another leader who acted as an executive officer.
"Their removal will degrade ISIL's ability to command and control troops, and it disrupts their ability to finance their efforts.”
The deaths came in recent weeks as a result of coalition airstrikes.
Australian authorities charged a teenager and four men Thursday with planning terrorist attacks on government buildings and on civilians. The buildings included the headquarters of the Australian Federal Police in Sydney.
Australian Federal Police Deputy Commissioner Michael Phelan told reporters police have arrested a 15-year-old boy and a 20-year-old man from western Sydney and have charged them with "conspiracy to prepare for a terrorist act.”
Three other men, already in jail on separate terrorism-related charges, were charged with being part of the plot.
Burundi's foreign minister said his government will take action to end the crisis that erupted when President Pierre Nkurunziza decided to seek a third term.
Alain Nyamitwe's statements followed talks this week with the European Union. He said while Burundi's government did not get the expected results from the meeting, it appreciates the frank discussions.
This is VOA news.
The U.S. military says it has successfully shot down a missile off the coast of Hawaii in a test of a missile defense system.
The U.S. Missile Defense Agency says the Aegis Weapon System fired an interceptor missile after radar detected the target. The missile destroyed the target.
Defense contractor Raytheon said the test's success keeps the program on track for deployment in Romania at year's end and the company says it is expected to operate in Poland in 2018.
Two top Turkish officials traveled to Baghdad Thursday in a bid to defuse a diplomatic standoff with the Iraqi government over the deployment of Turkish troops in northern Iraq. Dorian Jones reports.
Turkey's top diplomat, Feridun Sinirlioğlu, and the head of Turkish intelligence, Hakan Fidan, were dispatched to Baghdad as bilateral tensions continue to rise.
The Iraqi government is demanding the immediate withdrawal of Turkish forces deployed last week. But Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu reaffirmed on Thursday that there will be no withdrawal, saying the troops are needed to protect Turkish soldiers training Iraqis to fight the Islamic State.
Dorian Jones, Istanbul.
With less than 48 hours to go before a Friday deadline, delegates of 196 countries meeting in a Paris suburb are in a race to reach a wide-reaching climate agreement.
A 29-page draft of the agreement released on Wednesday shows differences remain substantial, especially on key questions involving the responsibility of richer nations to fund climate-change programs for poorer countries.
Here is United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon: "Our efforts here in Paris and beyond must reflect the rights and aspirations of the poor, the marginalized, and those most vulnerable to the impacts of a changing climate." : Ban Ki-moon.
Thailand's laws impose stiff penalties for defaming the country's royal family. Those laws are under increased scrutiny this week. Ron Corben reports.
A written statement by the international rights group Amnesty International says Thailand should stop applying the royal defamation law to criminalize freedom of expression, with the law leaving dozens of individuals in jail or facing military trials without access to appeal.
Amnesty says the law raises concerns over "absurd extremes of Thailand's restrictions on freedom of expression.”
The royal defamation law, Lèse Majesté, has been rigorously enforced in recent years under democratically elected governments but applied more intensively since the military took power in May last year.
Ron Corben, Bangkok, Thailand.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. President Barack Obama will address the nation on terrorism.
Mr. Obama Sunday urged Americans not to give in to fear following the recent attacks in Paris and California The president will try to assure the public that he and his administration will take the threat of terrorism seriously.

Rival factions in Libya's ongoing civil war say they have reached an agreement to end their political deadlock.

Al-Arabiya reports that a framework calls for a ten-person committee to form a unity government.
Syrian President Bashar al-Assad has criticized Britain's entrance into the U.S.-led coalition attacking Islamic State militants in Syria, saying the airstrikes are illegal and will fail.
In an interview published in Britain's Sunday Times, Mr. Assad said the Islamic State cannot be defeated by airstrikes alone. He said the only airstrikes that have been effective are those done by Russia.
Four months after announcing he was battling cancer, former U.S. President Jimmy Carter told members of his church in Plains, Georgia, there were no signs of the life-threatening disease.
Speaking by phone to VOA, Maranatha Baptist Church member and close Carter friend Jill Stuckey said the president told a crowd of several hundred that medical tests conducted said he has no signs of the disease.
This is VOA news.
The United States continues to monitor "conflicting reports" about the fate of Taliban leader, Mullah Akhtar Mansour, but is skeptical a clear picture will emerge soon. Ayaz Gul reports.
After days of widespread reports that Taliban leader Mullah Akhtar Mansour had been seriously wounded in a gunfight with rival militant commanders, the Islamist insurgency released a voice message from its chief to prove he is alive.
In the message released Saturday, Mansour rejected reports of his death in a shootout in neighboring Pakistan and of rifts within the Taliban as propaganda from the Afghan government and its intelligence agency.
Ayaz Gul, Islamabad.
Pakistan's interior minister says he does not believe there is a link between militants in his country and a Pakistani-born woman involved in Thursday's shootings in California.
Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan briefed reporters on what Pakistani authorities know about one of the suspects, Tashfeen Malik.
Top security officials from India and Pakistan met in the Thai capital, Bangkok, for talks on regional and security issues.
A joint statement said Sunday's meeting included discussions on peace and security, terrorism and the disputed region of Kashmir.
Marine Le Pen is pleased that her National Front party has made unprecedented gains in the first round of regional French elections.
French polling agencies show the National Front won between 27 and 30 percent support nationwide, followed by former President Nicolas Sarkozy's center-right Republican party and the governing Socialists.
The election comes as France remains under tight security following last month's terrorist attacks in Paris.
A second round of elections is scheduled for next Sunday.
U.S. Vice President Joe Biden is in Ukraine for a visit aimed at pushing the government toward reforms. He also wants to reassure Ukraine that the war in Syria has not diminished U.S. support for the nation.
Biden arrived in Kyiv early Monday local time and is set to meet with President Petro Poroshenko later in the day.
Germany's vice chancellor says Saudi Arabia runs the risk of alienating its Western allies due to its support of fundamentalist mosques around the world.
Sigmar Gabriel says such mosques are breeding grounds for extremism. In an interview published Sunday in the Bild am Sonntag newspaper, Gabriel said the Saudis are financing Wahhabi mosques all over the world.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Sunday he is rejecting U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry's warning that a collapse of the Palestinian Authority could have consequences for the security of Israel.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Gathering approves U.N. plan for Libya.
Representatives of 17 countries and four world bodies have wrapped up a meeting with representatives of Libya's two rival factions with support for a new unity government.
The meeting in Rome on Sunday was jointly chaired by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and his Italian counterpart, Paolo Gentiloni, as Libya's two rival governments plan to sign the accord in Morocco on Wednesday.
"They are determined to speak and move forward for Libya, and we are determined to support them in that effort." :John Kerry.
U.S. President Barack Obama is hailing the climate change agreement reached in Paris as a potential turning point for the world.
"Even if all the initial targets set in Paris are met, we'll only be part of the way there when it comes to reducing carbon from the atmosphere, so we cannot be complacent." Under the agreement, all nations will communicate their climate targets every five years, starting in 2020.
Officials in northwestern Pakistan say a bomb exploded in a market Sunday, killing at least 23 people and wounding about 55.
The explosion happened in Parachinar. That's the administrative center of the Kurram district near the Afghan border.
An outlawed Sunni group claimed responsibility.
At least 13 women have won municipal council seats in Saudi Arabia's first election open to women voters and candidates.
Early results showed victory for Salma bint Hizab al-Oteibi. She was the first confirmed victory for a woman running for a municipal council seat.
State-affiliated websites and news agencies indicate Saudi Arabians may have elected as many as 17.
This is VOA news.
The U.S. government is urging American citizens to leave Burundi amid violence involving the military and police officers.
The State Department says it has ordered the [department] departure of non-emergency U.S. officials and [the families to, of] the families of personnel.
Violence began in Burundi in the wake of contested elections and an attempted coup in May.
At least six people were wounded Sunday in Central African Republic capital of Bangui when violence broke out. The violence came as voters cast ballots on a new constitution intended to stop more than three years of conflict.
A journalist with the French News Agency reports seeing two dead bodies and a dozen others in a mosque.
Muslim and Christian militia members, who have been responsible for the violence, had threatened to stop the vote.
If passed, the new constitution would limit the president (to) two five-year terms, cut the power of the military and ensure religious freedom.
Elections for a new president and parliament are scheduled to be held later this month.
France's center-right emerged ahead in initial results of regional elections.
Early results show the Republicans party of former President Nicolas Sarkozy and his allies leading in at least seven out of 13 French regions. The ruling Socialists and other leftist parties captured at least four.
After leading in six regions during the first round of voting last week, the anti-immigrant, anti-European National Front failed to capture a single region.
A new U.S. political survey shows Texas Senator Ted Cruz, with strong support from evangelical Christians and conservative activists, surging to the top among Republican presidential candidates in Iowa. Iowa will hold the nation's first 2016 nominating contest.
National polls show Trump with commanding edges over all of his opponents. Surveys show former secretary of state Hillary Clinton with a commanding lead in the race for the Democratic presidential nomination.
The Russian Defense Ministry says one of its destroyers in the Aegean Sea fired warning shots Sunday at a Turkish fishing vessel.
The ministry said a guided missile destroyer was unable to make radio contact with the approaching Turkish fishing vessel, which failed to respond to visual signals and flares. Russia said the destroyer fired the warning shots when the fishing boat was 600 meters away. It quickly changed course and passed within 540 meters.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. The climate summit begins in Paris.
U.S. President Barack Obama urged world leaders to "rise to the moment," telling them progress at a U.N. climate summit in Paris will be measured by "the suffering that is averted and a planet that is preserved.”
"Nearly 200 nations have assembled here this week -- a declaration that for all the challenges we face, the growing threat of climate change could define the contours of this century more dramatically than any other.”
The summit participants are trying to reach an agreement on measures to keep global temperatures from rising more than two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial revolution levels.
Mr. Obama voiced regret Monday to Russian President Vladimir Putin over the Turkish shoot-down of a Russian jet fighter last week.
The two leaders met for 30 minutes on the sidelines of the climate summit.
The U.S. State Department says it has evidence from its own sources and from Turkey that the Russian jet shot down on the Turkey-Syria border last week had violated Turkish airspace.
A spokeswoman says Turkey warned the Russian pilots multiple times but received no response. Russia has insisted that the plane never left Syria.
Turkey's Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu said Monday his country will not apologize for shooting down the jet. He said he hoped Russia would reconsider economic sanctions that President Vladimir Putin announced in response to the incident.
The United Nations says overnight attacks [by] on civilians by Ugandan rebels [on, in], rather, in an eastern border region of the Democratic Republic of Congo has left at least 24 people dead.
The [instance] incident took place in the Beni region.

Pope Francis wrapped up his visit to the Central African Republic on Monday with a visit to a mosque. Chris Stein reports.
Pope Francis brought his message of peace and reconciliation to a mosque in Bangui's PK5 neighborhood. It was perhaps the most treacherous part of his 24-hour stay in the CAR's capital.
PK5 was once home to tens of thousands of Muslims. But the area has been the scene of multiple clashes between Muslim and Christian militias, and the majority of its residents have fled to other cities or to IDP camps.
Despite security concerns, Pope Francis arrived at the mosque in his open-sided popemobile, flanked by guards and United Nations peacekeepers.
Addressing an audience inside, he called for solidarity between Muslims and Christians.
Chris Stein, Bangui.
The United States tightened its visa waiver program Monday in the wake of the Paris terrorist attacks. It added new screenings for travelers headed to the U.S. from the 38 countries around the world whose citizens need a visa to enter the country.
[The Monetary] The International Monetary Fund Monday added China's yuan to its basket of key global currencies.
The IMF said that the yuan is qualified to be added to the U.S. dollar, Europe's euro, the Japanese yen and the British pound as one of the currencies in the world organization's Special Drawing Rights grouping.
Here is IMF Managing Director Christine Lagarde. "Today, November 30th, the IMF's executive board decided that the renminbi qualified for the SDR basket under existing criteria.”
That action will take effect next October.
A Jerusalem court convicted two Israeli youths Monday for last year's killing of a 16-year-old Palestinian teenager who was burned to death in East Jerusalem.
The court postponed its verdict for a third defendant after the man's lawyer submitted a last-minute insanity defense.
The two youths are due to be sentenced in January.
Abu Khdeir was abducted and then burned to death in retaliation for the kidnapping and killing of three Israeli teens.
The United States has received what are called "credible reports of an imminent attack" in the Afghan capital within the next two days. The government is urging U.S. citizens to exercise great caution if traveling around Kabul.
According to an official statement, the leaders of Pakistan and Afghanistan held an "extensive exchange" Monday in Paris. The conversations focused on the stalled peace process in Afghanistan.
Former Prime Minister Roch Marc Christian Kaboré holds a strong lead as results trickle in from Burkina Faso's presidential election.
Partial returns showed him ahead with more than 50 percent of the vote.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. More on the California shooting.
The U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation says authorities believe both suspects in last week's shooting in San Bernardino, California, were radicalized "for some time.”
David Bowdich, the FBI's assistant director in charge of (the Los Angeles) field office, told reporters Monday there is evidence the two had bee planning their deadly attack.
U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch said the Justice Department will investigate the Chicago Police Department.
"The Department Justice has opened an investigation into whether the Chicago police department has engaged in a pattern or practice of violations of the constitution or federal law.”
The probe follows the recent release of a video from a police shooting incident that occurred in 2014. The video shows a black suspect being shot by a police officer.
That officer, Jason Van Dyke, has bee charged with first-degree murder.
The release of the video triggered protests and allegations that authorities had tried to cover up the incident.

The official tells VOA's Somali Service the man surrendered to officials and African Union troops in the coastal town of Barawe in Somalia's Lower Shabelle region.
Election officials in Venezuela say the opposition has won control of the country's legislature, delivering a defeat to the ruling Socialist party.
Authorities say the opposition, with some districts yet to be counted, won 99 of 167 seats in the National Assembly. The Socialist party have won only 46. The results are a major setback for the long-dominant Socialists who have led the country for 16 years.
This is VOA news.
Republican U.S. presidential frontrunner Donald Trump has called for a "total and complete" ban on (Muslims) entering the United States until the nation's leaders can, in his words, "figure out what is going on.”
Trump alleged that polling data (shows) "hatred toward Americans by large segments of the Muslim population.”
Controversial statements against Muslims are nothing new for Trump, who has called on the government to monitor mosques, and has refused to rule out his earlier proposal to enter the names of Muslims in America into a database.
U.S. Vice President Joe Biden says $190 million in new U.S. aid to Ukraine will help the country implement reforms and fight corruption.
The vice president spoke in Kyiv on Monday during a joint briefing with Ukraine's President Petro Poroshenko. The briefing followed talks between the two leaders.
Latvia's prime minister has handed in her resignation.
Laimdota Straujuma said Monday she is stepping down after only two years in office because "new ideas are needed." Her resignation follows in-fighting within her center-right ruling coalition.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Dave DeForest reporting. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry joins talks in Paris.
Foreign ministers from European and Arab nations are discussing the battle against the Islamic State and efforts to foster a political resolution to the situation in Syria.
Diplomats are trying to build momentum for a meeting Friday in New York that would include U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon and his envoy for Syria.
Secretary Kerry will use a visit to Russia Tuesday to plan for Friday's meeting of the International Syria Support Group.
An official says Kerry also will discuss efforts to get full implementation of the Minsk agreement, which includes a cease-fire in eastern Ukraine and the withdrawal of heavy weapons by both the Ukrainian government and the Russian-backed separatists.
President Barack Obama says he is "confident" the U.S.-led coalition will prevail in its battle against the Islamic State. Speaking at the Pentagon Monday following a meeting with his national security team, the president said IS is losing ground.
"Last month, in November, we dropped more bombs on ISIL targets than any other month since this campaign started. We're also taking out ISIL leaders, commanders and killers, one by one.”
Egypt issued a preliminary report on Monday saying its investigators have found no evidence of terrorism in the October 31 crash of a Russian plane in the Sinai Peninsula.
A statement from the civil aviation ministry said the investigation is continuing.
State media say Turkey withdrew some of its forces from a camp outside the Iraqi city of Mosul as part of what the military official called a "rearrangement.”
Turkish forces had been operating in Iraq helping to train local fighters.
This is VOA news.

National Front leader Marine Le Pen struck a defiant tone.
She said the global elite is acting for the dilution of France and its people in a huge worldwide melting pot.
Marine Le Pen promised supporters that her party would return stronger in 2017.

A French nursery school teacher who claimed he was stabbed in his classroom by an Islamic State supporter has admitted to prosecutors he invented the story.
The prosecutors are still questioning the teacher, whose injuries are not life-threatening, over why he lied.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. U.S. President Barack Obama says climate change is "an economic and security imperative" that must be tackled now.
Mr. Obama spoke to reporters Tuesday on the sidelines of the U.N. Climate Summit outside Paris.
"If we let the world keep warming as fast as it is, and sea levels rising as fast as they are, and weather patterns keep shifting in more unexpected ways, then before long we are going to have to devote more and more and more of our economic and military resources not to growing opportunity for our people, but to adapting to the various consequences of a changing planet.”
World leaders are trying to agree on measures they hope will keep global temperatures from rising more than two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial revolution levels.
Teams of U.S. special operators could be in place within weeks, aiming to strike out against the Islamic State group.
The "specialized expeditionary targeting force" will consist of approximately 200 special forces personnel and could be in place within a few weeks.
U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter announced the deployment Tuesday in testimony before the House Armed Services Committee.
"These special operators will over time be able to conduct raids, free hostages, gather intelligence and capture ISIL leaders.”
Carter said the force would work with both Iraqi and Kurdish peshmerga forces in Iraq and be capable of unilateral action in Syria.
The Syria-based Islamic State group has expanded its reach in Africa. A top leader of the U.S. Africa Command, Vice Admiral Michael Franken, says the group is courting Islamist extremists from Nigeria to Somalia.
This VOA news.
NATO says it will keep about 12,000 troops in Afghanistan for an extra year in 2016 to prevent the country from again becoming a safe haven for terrorists.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg said Tuesday the alliance will pledge "approximately 12,000 troops" as part of its Resolute Support Mission in the region. He said that figure is in line with the current NATO troop strength in Afghanistan.
"So we are in Afghanistan of course to support Afghans but we are also in Afghanistan to support ourselves because if Afghanistan becomes a safe haven for international terrorists that will also be a threat to us.”
Stoltenberg announced the pledge after alliance foreign ministers endorsed the decision.
Nusra Front fighters released a group of 16 Lebanese soldiers Tuesday. It was part of an exchange brokered by Qatar.
The soldiers were captured during an attack on a Lebanese town near the Syria border.
The medical charity, Doctors Without Borders, has condemned the repeated barrel-bombing of a hospital in a rebel-held part of the Syrian province of Homs.
The organization said the bombings have killed seven people and wounded 47.
NATO foreign ministers are looking at ways to beef up security along Turkey's border.
Officials at a foreign ministers meeting in Brussels said Tuesday those additional measures would include more ships in the Mediterranean, more alliance planes at Incirlik air base in Turkey and a bolstered missile defense system.
An explosion near a commuter rail station in Istanbul, Turkey, Tuesday wounded at least five people and brought the transport system to a halt.
A local official in Istanbul said the explosion near the Bayrampasa station was caused by a pipe bomb.
The anti-corruption group, Transparency International, estimates that 75 million Africans paid a bribe in the past year. The figure is included in a report that says most Africans believe corruption is getting worse.
A Philippine regional court has found a U.S. Marine guilty of killing a transgendered person. Simone Orendain takes a look.
A regional trial court judge in Olongapo City found Lance Corporal Joseph Scott Pemberton guilty of homicide for killing Jennifer Laude after he found out she was a transgender woman. Judge Roline Ginez Jabalde sentenced Pemberton to six to 12 years in prison with credit for his confinement and ordered him to pay close to $100,000 in damages to the Laude family.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Trump gains opposition.
Republican U.S. presidential front-runner Donald Trump is drawing rebukes from across the world for proposing a total ban on Muslims entering the United States. Trump said the ban should be in effect until the country's leaders can, in his words, "figure out what is going on" about possible new terrorist attacks.
White House spokesman Josh Earnest on Tuesday called Trump's rhetoric "offensive and toxic." "And the fact is that what Donald Trump said yesterday disqualifies him from serving as president.”
In the U.S., trump's political opponents widely condemned his proposal.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry says he is hopeful that talks will be held next week on ending the war in Syria.
Speaking after a meeting with U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in Paris, Kerry said the talks, scheduled for December 18 in New York, will depend on events in the coming week, including a Saudi-led conference of the Syrian opposition.
Russia says it has, for the first time, struck Islamic State targets in northern Syria with missiles fired from a submarine in the Mediterranean.
Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu told President Vladimir Putin that cruise missiles targeted two positions near the Islamic State-controlled city of Raqqa.
A South African judge has granted bail to Oscar Pistorius.
"The applicant is released on bail of 10,000 rand. Accused, submit to the house arrest.”
The Olympic athlete appeared in court Tuesday to hear whether he could remain under house arrest while awaiting new sentencing.
An appeals court last week convicted him of murder in the 2013 shooting death of his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp.
This is VOA news.
The United States is reviewing reports that Iran carried out a ballistic missile test last month in violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions.
U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power said Tuesday the United States is "conducting a serious review" of the reports and will [make appropriate steps] take appropriate steps if they are true.
The leader of the semi-autonomous Iraqi Kurdistan Region government is to visit Ankara on Wednesday. Dorian Jones reports.
In what is widely seen as a sign of the importance Ankara attaches to Iraqi Kurdistan Regional President Masoud Barzani, he is due to be hosted Wednesday by the president, Recep Tayyip Erdo?an.
Barzani's visit coincides with Baghdad demanding Ankara's withdrawal of recently deployed Turkish soldiers and tanks in Iraq.
The former head of Turkey's consul to the Iraqi Kurdistan Region, Aydin Selcen, says the visit is further evidence of Barzani's support of Ankara against Baghdad.
Dorian Jones, Istanbul.
Fighting erupted in Afghanistan Tuesday when a group of at least nine Taliban suicide bombers attacked the airport in Kandahar.
Regional corps commander General Daud Shah Wafadar told VOA he was apparently the target of the attack.
He said a bodyguard was killed and another wounded.
Democrats in both the House and the Senate [have procedural tactics Tuesday] or used procedural tactics Tuesday to try to get Republican leaders to take up gun control legislation.
The failed legislation would have prevented any person on the FBI's so-called "no-fly list" from buying a gun.
The proposal was to be in response to recent mass killings in the United States.
Republicans opposed the legislation, saying some innocent people end up on the list mistakenly and no one can find out if he or she is on the list.
The U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments Tuesday in a voting rights case.
Two Texas voters are challenging the way their state draws up its legislative districts.
They are asking the court to decide if the principle of one person, one vote requires state legislative districts to be apportioned on the basis of the state's total population rather than just the number of citizen voters.
The results of that case could shift voting power from urban to rural areas.
Economic forecasters say the U.S. economy will grow a bit more slowly than first thought next year, but they also say the outlook for jobs and housing [are] is good.
The National Association for Business Economics surveyed its members who predict U.S. economic growth will be a modest 2.2 percent in 2015 and speed up a little bit next year.
Checking market activities, on Wall Street, U.S. stock indexes were down at the close of trade today. European markets were also mostly lower.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest on Tuesday called Trump's rhetoric "offensive and toxic." "And the fact is that what Donald Trump said yesterday disqualifies him from serving as president.”
In the U.S., trump's political opponents widely condemned his proposal.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry says he is hopeful that talks will be held next week on ending the war in Syria.
Speaking after a meeting with U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in Paris, Kerry said the talks, scheduled for December 18 in New York, will depend on events in the coming week, including a Saudi-led conference of the Syrian opposition.
Russia says it has, for the first time, struck Islamic State targets in northern Syria with missiles fired from a submarine in the Mediterranean.
Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu told President Vladimir Putin that cruise missiles targeted two positions near the Islamic State-controlled city of Raqqa.
A South African judge has granted bail to Oscar Pistorius.
"The applicant is released on bail of 10,000 rand. Accused, submit to the house arrest.”
The Olympic athlete appeared in court Tuesday to hear whether he could remain under house arrest while awaiting new sentencing.
An appeals court last week convicted him of murder in the 2013 shooting death of his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp.

The United States is reviewing reports that Iran carried out a ballistic missile test last month in violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions.
U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power said Tuesday the United States is "conducting a serious review" of the reports and will [make appropriate steps] take appropriate steps if they are true.
The leader of the semi-autonomous Iraqi Kurdistan Region government is to visit Ankara on Wednesday. Dorian Jones reports.
In what is widely seen as a sign of the importance Ankara attaches to Iraqi Kurdistan Regional President Masoud Barzani, he is due to be hosted Wednesday by the president, Recep Tayyip Erdo?an.
Barzani's visit coincides with Baghdad demanding Ankara's withdrawal of recently deployed Turkish soldiers and tanks in Iraq.
The former head of Turkey's consul to the Iraqi Kurdistan Region, Aydin Selcen, says the visit is further evidence of Barzani's support of Ankara against Baghdad.

Fighting erupted in Afghanistan Tuesday when a group of at least nine Taliban suicide bombers attacked the airport in Kandahar.
Regional corps commander General Daud Shah Wafadar told VOA he was apparently the target of the attack.
He said a bodyguard was killed and another wounded.
Democrats in both the House and the Senate [have procedural tactics Tuesday] or used procedural tactics Tuesday to try to get Republican leaders to take up gun control legislation.
The failed legislation would have prevented any person on the FBI's so-called "no-fly list" from buying a gun.
The proposal was to be in response to recent mass killings in the United States.
Republicans opposed the legislation, saying some innocent people end up on the list mistakenly and no one can find out if he or she is on the list.
The U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments Tuesday in a voting rights case.
Two Texas voters are challenging the way their state draws up its legislative districts.
They are asking the court to decide if the principle of one person, one vote requires state legislative districts to be apportioned on the basis of the state's total population rather than just the number of citizen voters.
The results of that case could shift voting power from urban to rural areas.
Economic forecasters say the U.S. economy will grow a bit more slowly than first thought next year, but they also say the outlook for jobs and housing [are] is good.
The National Association for Business Economics surveyed its members who predict U.S. economic growth will be a modest 2.2 percent in 2015 and speed up a little bit next year.
Checking market activities, on Wall Street, U.S. stock indexes were down at the close of trade today. European markets were also mostly lower.

U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry welcomed the end of the investigation.
U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter said President Barack Obama has told the military of the need to accelerate the campaign against the Islamic State. He said the United States is looking for more help from coalition partners.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David Byrd reporting. The FBI announces it is officially investigating this week's massacre in California as an act of terrorism.
The assistant chief of the FBI's Los Angeles office, David Bowdich, said Friday a number of pieces of evidence, including crushed cell phones found near the massacre, have turned up to make officials believe it was a terrorist act.
"We have retained those cell phones and we do continue to exploit the data from those cell phones. We do hope that the digital fingerprints that were left by these two individuals will take us towards their motivation.”
In Washington, FBI Director James Comey said that investigators are working to understand the electronic record of the two attackers.
"There is much about this that doesn't make sense [to even] for even those of us who do this for a living. That is the reason we have hundreds of people running down leads all over the world on this and spending tremendous amounts of time, as we sit here trying to understand the electronic record around these two killers.”
David Chesley is an attorney for the family of Syed Rizwan Farook. He criticized the FBI's characterization of his client as a terrorist as premature, saying he has not seen solid evidence that either Farook or his wife were connect to terrorism.
"When the FBI chief has literally come out and said that they found no link to a larger terrorist group or a terrorist cell, I think people need to listen to that and consider that.”
Farook and his wife, Tashfeen Malik, killed 14 people and wounded 21 others at a Christmas party on Wednesday. The couple was killed in a gunbattle with police.

Turkish troops have entered Iraq, for what U.S. officials say appears to be training exercises with Iraqi anti-Islamic State forces.
The troops crossed the border about 30 kilometers from Islamic State-held territory near Mosul.
A Turkish official told Reuters the troops were in the Mosul Bashiqa region for "routine training exercises.”
U.S. officials confirmed the move late Friday, saying one Turkish battalion had positioned itself on the Iraqi side of the border.
Turkish media reported the deployment, which included tanks and other armored vehicles, was part of a regular turnover. The new troops were replacing Turkish special forces that had previously been training anti-Islamic State fighters in the area.
Germany's parliament has overwhelmingly voted to send military aid to fight Islamic State militants in Syria.
Germany will send Tornado reconnaissance jets, a frigate, refueling aircraft and up to 1,200 military personnel to join the coalition against Islamic State.
However, German pilots will not fly sorties against Islamic State targets.
French President François Hollande had asked the international community to escalate the fight against Islamic State after the group claimed responsibility for last month's attack that left 130 people dead in Paris.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said Friday it might be possible for Syrian rebels and government forces to battle Islamic State without Syrian President Bashar al-Assad leaving power.
Speaking in Athens Friday, Kerry said that all sides in the Syrian civil war will only cooperate in fighting Islamic State if they are confident that a mutually acceptable solution about the Syrian leader's future is in sight.
"But it would be exceedingly difficult to cooperate without some indication or confidence on the part of those who have been fighting him that in fact there is a resolution or a solution in sight.”
A senior State Department official said that Kerry's comments in Athens do not represent a shift in U.S. policy.
The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries decided not to cut oil production at a contentious meeting in Vienna on Friday.
The decision comes at a time when a surplus of oil on global markets has driven prices down from $100 a barrel to about $40 a barrel in the last 18 months.
The U.S. economy had a net gain of 211,000 jobs in November while the unemployment rate held steady at 5 percent.
The job gains are stronger than most economists expected and support the case for the central bank to raise a key interest rate later this month.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Ray Kouguell reporting. Russia announces change in Syrian strategy.
President Vladimir Putin says his country is now in support of leading Western-backed opposition group in joint operations with Syrian troops against Islamic State militants.
At a meeting with his top Defense Ministry officials Friday, President Putin said for the first time Russia provided air cover, weapons and supplies to the Free Syrian Army, which has long been fighting government troops.
If confirmed, it will represent a major policy shift for Russia.
Negotiators at the U.N. climate conference in Paris expect to have a final draft agreement to curb global warming by Saturday morning Paris time.
Negotiators from the 196 countries cannot reach a deal by the Friday deadline. Lisa Bryant reports.
Much of Friday's negotiations took place behind closed doors but there were a few announcements, including that Brazil has joined the so-called "high ambition coalition." That's a group of more than 100 developing and developed countries, including the United States pushing for an ambitious climate deal.
Foreign Minister Tony de Brum of the Marshall Islands, one of the countries most vulnerable to climate change, welcomed Brazil's move.
"We responded, we want to work with countries concerned about ambition and differentiation and welcome Brazil. Having you on board is essential to our success.”
Lisa Bryant, for VOA news, Paris.
Gunmen in Burundi launched coordinated attacks on three military bases in the capital Friday, sparking gunbattles that left at least 12 of the attackers dead.
A Burundian army spokesman said five soldiers were wounded and the 21 attackers were captured along with some arms and explosives.
This is VOA news.
Police in Ethiopia say a hand grenade was thrown in a mosque in the capital of Addis Ababa Friday, wounding at least six people.
The explosion went off just after evening prayers at Anwar Mosque in a predominately Muslim neighborhood.
There has been no claim of responsibility.
The Taliban, meanwhile, claimed responsibility for a car bombing and gunfire that struck a diplomatic neighborhood of Kabul Friday.
Afghan police say at least two people were killed, including a Spanish policeman. Several others were wounded. A nearby hospital run by an Italian charity reports it treated seven victims.
A Taliban spokesman told VOA that a guest house was the target because he says it was being used for military activities and intelligence sharing.
Pakistan fired a nuclear-capable missile Friday, just two days after hosting a regional peace conference with archrival India.
The military said the surface-to-surface ballistic Shaheen III missile has a range of more than 2,700 kilometers and can carry both nuclear and conventional warheads.
The military did not disclose the location of the test.
Authorities arrested two Syrian nationals in Geneva Friday when traces of explosives were found in their vehicle.
Authorities in the Geneva region had been searching for four suspected jihadists with alleged ties to Islamic State, but police did not say whether Friday's arrests were connected to the search.
Swiss police increased terror alert level in the city on Thursday.
United Nations and international agencies welcomed the arrival in Toronto, Canada, of a first group of Syrian refugees for settlement.
They traveled from Beirut, Lebanon, and are the first of 25,000 Syrians to be resettled in Canada by early next year. Lisa Schlein reports.
The Syrians who arrived on a Royal Canadian Air Force jet are mainly from Aleppo and Damascus. Both Syrian cities have undergone heavy bombing and deprivation since the war began in 2011.
Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau greeted the 163 refugees upon their arrival Thursday night.
The refugees who will begin their new life under a recently announced humanitarian program were given permanent residence papers and social insurance numbers on arrival.
To date, some 30 countries have pledged to resettle an estimated 160,000 Syrians.
Lisa Schlein, for VOA news, Geneva.
The United States and Cuba have agreed to reestablish direct postal service, which was cut more than five decades ago at the height of the Cold War.
The two countries announced Friday that they will launch a pilot program in the coming weeks. They did not give a date for when service will be permanently restored.
The announcement comes almost a year after President Barack Obama and Cuba's President Raul Castro announced that the two countries would renew diplomatic relations.

The husband and wife who shot 14 people to death at a California holiday party Thursday had 12 pipe bombs, bomb-making materials and thousands of rounds of ammunition in their apartment.
The biggest question left for investigators is why the couple did what they did.
David Bowdich is the assistant director of the FBI's Los Angeles office. "We are trying to determine the motive, we do not yet know the motive, we cannot rule anything out at this point.”
Syed Rizwan Farook and his wife, Tashfeen Malik, were killed in a shootout with police near the handicapped training center where they shot and killed 14 people and wounded 21.
British fighter jets have carried out the first airstrikes in Syria targeting the Islamic State following a vote in parliament. Henry Ridgwell reports.
Just hours after military action was approved, four British Tornado jets took off from their base in Cyprus to attack Islamic State targets in Syria. The first bombs were dropped on the Omar oil refineries in the east that it's believed were used to fund the terror group.
Britain has sent eight further jets to its base in Cyprus as the bombing campaign intensifies.
Henry Ridgwell, London.
Fighting was reported in central Somalia Thursday a day after the leaders of the rival Puntland and Galmudug administrations signed a peace agreement.
Medical officials say at least 10 people were killed, more than 30 wounded.
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged negotiators at climate change talks in Paris to adopt a universal agreement to begin alleviating the effects of global warming. The U.N. chief spoke to reporters before returning to Paris Thursday to rejoin the conference.
Conferees hope to have an agreement by the end of the week.

Switzerland's Justice Ministry has identified FIFA vice presidents Alfredo Hawit and Juan Ángel Napout as the two Latin Americans arrested Thursday in the latest raids targeting officials of the world football organization.

South Africa's Supreme Court of Appeal has convicted double amputee athlete Oscar Pistorius of murder, overturning his earlier conviction of culpable homicide, a less serious charge.
"The accused's conviction and sentence on count one are set aside and replaced with the following: guilty of murder, with the accused having had criminal intent in the form of dolus eventualis.”
The court announced its ruling Thursday in the case of the Olympic star who was convicted last year of the 2013 shooting death of his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp.
The judge said regardless of whether Pistorius thought he was shooting an unknown intruder or knew it was his girlfriend, he should have known his actions would cause death.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting.
The husband and wife who shot 14 people to death at a California holiday party Thursday had 12 pipe bombs, bomb-making materials and thousands of rounds of ammunition in their apartment.
The biggest question left for investigators is why the couple did what they did.
David Bowdich is the assistant director of the FBI's Los Angeles office. "We are trying to determine the motive, we do not yet know the motive, we cannot rule anything out at this point.”
Syed Rizwan Farook and his wife, Tashfeen Malik, were killed in a shootout with police near the handicapped training center where they shot and killed 14 people and wounded 21.
British fighter jets have carried out the first airstrikes in Syria targeting the Islamic State following a vote in parliament. Henry Ridgwell reports.
Just hours after military action was approved, four British Tornado jets took off from their base in Cyprus to attack Islamic State targets in Syria. The first bombs were dropped on the Omar oil refineries in the east that it's believed were used to fund the terror group.
Britain has sent eight further jets to its base in Cyprus as the bombing campaign intensifies.
Henry Ridgwell, London.
Fighting was reported in central Somalia Thursday a day after the leaders of the rival Puntland and Galmudug administrations signed a peace agreement.
Medical officials say at least 10 people were killed, more than 30 wounded.
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon urged negotiators at climate change talks in Paris to adopt a universal agreement to begin alleviating the effects of global warming. The U.N. chief spoke to reporters before returning to Paris Thursday to rejoin the conference.
Conferees hope to have an agreement by the end of the week.
This is VOA news.
Switzerland's Justice Ministry has identified FIFA vice presidents Alfredo Hawit and Juan Ángel Napout as the two Latin Americans arrested Thursday in the latest raids targeting officials of the world football organization.
The ministry said both men opposed their extradition to the United States. Swiss officials indicate the U.S. suspects the men of accepting bribes worth millions of dollars.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Syrian opposition groups agree on a framework for possible talks.
More than 100 representatives wrapped up a meeting in Riyadh Thursday with a plan for holding talks with the government of President Bashar al-Assad. The group still needs to pick its representatives for a negotiating team.
The U.S. military says the coalition fighting Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria has killed the group's finance minister and two other senior leaders.
Spokesman Steve Warren said Thursday the attacks killed Abu Salah, the Islamic State's finance minister, and another leader who acted as an executive officer.
"Their removal will degrade ISIL's ability to command and control troops, and it disrupts their ability to finance their efforts.”
The deaths came in recent weeks as a result of coalition airstrikes.
Australian authorities charged a teenager and four men Thursday with planning terrorist attacks on government buildings and on civilians. The buildings included the headquarters of the Australian Federal Police in Sydney.
Australian Federal Police Deputy Commissioner Michael Phelan told reporters police have arrested a 15-year-old boy and a 20-year-old man from western Sydney and have charged them with "conspiracy to prepare for a terrorist act.”
Three other men, already in jail on separate terrorism-related charges, were charged with being part of the plot.
Burundi's foreign minister said his government will take action to end the crisis that erupted when President Pierre Nkurunziza decided to seek a third term.
Alain Nyamitwe's statements followed talks this week with the European Union. He said while Burundi's government did not get the expected results from the meeting, it appreciates the frank discussions.
This is VOA news.
The U.S. military says it has successfully shot down a missile off the coast of Hawaii in a test of a missile defense system.
The U.S. Missile Defense Agency says the Aegis Weapon System fired an interceptor missile after radar detected the target. The missile destroyed the target.
Defense contractor Raytheon said the test's success keeps the program on track for deployment in Romania at year's end and the company says it is expected to operate in Poland in 2018.
Two top Turkish officials traveled to Baghdad Thursday in a bid to defuse a diplomatic standoff with the Iraqi government over the deployment of Turkish troops in northern Iraq. Dorian Jones reports.
Turkey's top diplomat, Feridun Sinirlioğlu, and the head of Turkish intelligence, Hakan Fidan, were dispatched to Baghdad as bilateral tensions continue to rise.
The Iraqi government is demanding the immediate withdrawal of Turkish forces deployed last week. But Turkish Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu reaffirmed on Thursday that there will be no withdrawal, saying the troops are needed to protect Turkish soldiers training Iraqis to fight the Islamic State.
Dorian Jones, Istanbul.
With less than 48 hours to go before a Friday deadline, delegates of 196 countries meeting in a Paris suburb are in a race to reach a wide-reaching climate agreement.
A 29-page draft of the agreement released on Wednesday shows differences remain substantial, especially on key questions involving the responsibility of richer nations to fund climate-change programs for poorer countries.
Here is United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon: "Our efforts here in Paris and beyond must reflect the rights and aspirations of the poor, the marginalized, and those most vulnerable to the impacts of a changing climate." : Ban Ki-moon.
Thailand's laws impose stiff penalties for defaming the country's royal family. Those laws are under increased scrutiny this week. Ron Corben reports.
A written statement by the international rights group Amnesty International says Thailand should stop applying the royal defamation law to criminalize freedom of expression, with the law leaving dozens of individuals in jail or facing military trials without access to appeal.
Amnesty says the law raises concerns over "absurd extremes of Thailand's restrictions on freedom of expression.”
The royal defamation law, Lèse Majesté, has been rigorously enforced in recent years under democratically elected governments but applied more intensively since the military took power in May last year.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Libyan leaders from the country's two rival parliaments sign a national unity agreement.
The signing came in the Moroccan resort town of Skhirat. Edward Yeranian reports. The crowd clapped and chanted "Libya, Libya, Libya," as the deputy speakers of the country's two rival parliaments signed the national unity accord.
The agreement is an attempt to end the instability that has marred Libya since the 2011 ouster of longtime leader Moammar Gadhafi. It calls for a new unity government within 40 days, with members from the internationally recognized government in Tobruk and the Islamist-backed body in Tripoli.
Edward Yeranian, Cairo.
Finance ministers from the U.N. Security Council have adopted a resolution aimed at disrupting a source of revenue for Islamic State militants.
The resolution sponsored by the United States and Russia seeks to cut off the group's funding from oil and antiquity sales, ransom payments and other criminal activities. It also advocates sanctions against IS.
The resolution puts the group on the same level as al-Qaeda.
The president of Niger says his government has thwarted a coup attempt.
Mahamadou Issoufou says several officials have been arrested and that more arrests are expected.
Mr. Issoufou made the announcement in a television address to the nation. He said the situation is calm and under control.
Russian President Vladimir Putin says he wants to develop better ties with the United States no matter who wins next year's U.S. presidential election.
In his annual news conference with international reporters, Mr. Putin said he is ready to work with any president the American people elect.
This is VOA news.
Brazil's Supreme Court ruled Thursday that the nation's Congress must start all over again with impeachment proceedings against President Dilma Rousseff.
The court annulled an opposition-dominated impeachment commission established by secret ballot in the lower house and shifted responsibility for the proceedings to the Senate.
The actions are seen as a victory for the president who is believed to have greater support in the Senate where she has a greater chance to block impeachment.
Impeachment proceedings were initiated by the political opposition that accused her of breaking budget laws to increase spending to win her 2014 reelection campaign.
President Barack Obama says U.S. authorities are not aware of any specific terrorist threat on the eve of the year-end holiday period, but he called on all Americans to stay vigilant to protect the country.
"One of our greatest weapons against terrorism is our own strength and resilience as a people. That means staying vigilant. If you see something suspicious, say something to law enforcement.”
Mr. Obama spoke after a lengthy meeting with his full national security staff.
The friend and neighbor who bought the guns for the couple who massacred 14 people in California two weeks ago was charged Thursday with supporting terrorists, lying about the gun purchase and immigration fraud.
The FBI arrested Enrique Marquez Thursday. He faces up to 35 years in prison if convicted on all the charges.
Representatives of the International Syria Support Group will gather in New York Friday. It'll be a third round of talks on proposals for a Syrian political transition.
The Islamic State, meanwhile, is trying to recruit Chinese Muslims.
A video message in Mandarin Chinese was recently put in circulation as we hear from Henry Ridgwell.
They sing as Islamic State message calls on the group's Muslim brothers in China to join IS fighters to die on the battlefield.
Beijing had this reaction. In the face of terrorism, Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying says, no country can stand on its own. The international community should stand closer together and cooperate to jointly strike against all forms of terrorism.
Henry Ridgwell, London.
An independent review panel has found that the way the United Nations handled allegations of sexual abuse by peacekeepers in the Central African Republic was, in the panel's words, "seriously flawed" and a "gross institutional failure.”
The three-member panel, headed by Canadian Judge Marie Deschamps, handed over its more than 100-page report Thursday to U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, who made it public.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Another shooting incident in the U.S.
At least 14 people were killed and 17 wounded on Wednesday when three gunmen burst into a handicapped training center in San Bernardino, California, and started shooting.
Hours later, police killed one suspect after stopping an SUV in which the gunmen escaped. Another suspect is in custody.
Officials late Wednesday said there was an apparent standoff with others in a neighborhood close to the shooting site.
San Bernardino Police Chief Jarrod Burguan told reporters the shooters came to the training center prepared to kill. He said they used what he called "long guns.”
Russian Defense Ministry officials on Wednesday presented what they said was proof of Turkish involvement in illegal oil trading with the Islamic State.
They accused top Turkish officials, including President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and members of his family, of complicity in the sales. However, at a news conference, Deputy Defense Minister Anatoly Antonov presented no actual evidence that Mr. Erdoğan or any member of his family have been involved in trading IS oil.
U.S. military officials say the special forces troops being deployed to Iraq to put pressure on the Islamic State will have "well planned and very well targeted objectives" in both Iraq and Syria.
U.S. Army Colonel Steve Warren said the "specialized expeditionary targeting forces" will consist of about 100 troops, including a smaller number of commandos who will conduct "very precise, very surgical" operations.
Cameroon says its troops have killed 100 Boko Haram militants and have freed 900 captives that were held by (the) Nigeria-based militant group.
This is VOA news.
British lawmakers on Wednesday approved by a vote of 397-223 a request from Prime Minister David Cameron to take part in airstrikes against Islamic State in Syria.
Mr. Cameron appeared in parliament to make the case. " The action we propose is legal, it is necessary and it is the right thing to do to keep our country safe.”
After 10 hours of often heated debate, the request was approved.
NATO has formally invited Montenegro to join the alliance in its first expansion since 2009.
NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg made the announcement Wednesday during a meeting of NATO foreign ministers, calling it an "historic achievement" for the nation that was once part of Yugoslavia.
German Chancellor Angela Merkel says Afghans coming to Germany in pursuit of better economic circumstances will be sent back to Afghanistan.
Speaking to reporters at a joint news conference with visiting Afghan President Ashraf Ghani in Berlin, Ms. Merkel said Germany would meet its humanitarian obligations for Afghans who are in "acute" danger.
Participants at the United Nations climate change summit outside Paris are exploring the impact of natural disasters on the world's most vulnerable people.
Wednesday's sessions focus on oceans and other water resources. The U.N. warns that failure to improve water resource management jeopardizes progress on poverty eradication and achievement of sustainable developmental goals.
Participants at the conference sessions include national and local government delegations, development organizations and water resource management groups.
New test results show that waters where athletes will compete in next year's Rio de Janeiro Olympics are more widely contaminated than previously known. The tests indicate a possible threat to the health of athletes competing in the games.
A study of Rio's waterways commissioned by The Associated Press shows high levels of virus contamination and, in some cases, bacterial contamination on shorelines.
U.S. Senator Ben Cardin is calling for the redoubling of international efforts to support a political solution for Burundi.
Cardin said the United States should help the African Union finalize contingency plans for an African-led mission to prevent violence in the country.
Pakistan hanged four people Wednesday in connection with a Taliban attack on an army-run school in Peshawar last year. In the attack, militants killed 134 children and 16 staff members.
The military announced in August the four men had been convicted and had been sentenced to death.
On Wall Street, U.S. stock indexes ended the day lower.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Dave DeForest reporting. French officials identify a 3rd attacker.
The attacker was killed during the Paris terrorist incident in November.
Officials announced Wednesday that the attacker was from Strasbourg. He is believed to have traveled to Syria with a group of other people in late 2013. The suspect's name has not been officially released, but French media are identifying him as Fouad Mohamed-Aggad.
U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter testified before the Senate [Armed Services] Armed Forces Committee Wednesday and urged Turkey to do more to control its often porous border with Syria. Carter criticized Saudi Arabia and other Gulf states for being, in his words, "preoccupied by the conflict in Yemen" and not paying enough attention to the fight against the Islamic State group.
"The international community, including our allies and partners, has to step up before another attack, like Paris." :Ash Carter.
Rwanda is set to vote next week on a constitutional amendment that will allow President Paul Kagame to run for a 3rd term in 2017 and potentially to remain in power until 2034.
The Rwandan government announced late Tuesday that the referendum will be held on December 17 for Rwandans living abroad and on December 18th for those living in Rwanda.
The referendum is forecast to pass easily.
The head of the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation says the 2 shooters in last week's California massacre were radicalized before they met online and started discussing jihad and martyrdom about 2 years ago.
FBI Director James Comey told the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee Wednesday that the 2 were inspired by foreign terrorist groups.

U.S. Attorney General Loretta Lynch is criticizing European governments for limiting how intelligence agencies share counterterrorism information around the world.
Speaking in London, Lynch called it "particularly disappointing" that the European Court of Justice recently struck down the so-called safe harbor agreement that allowed U.S. companies to easily send customer data from the European Union to servers based across the Atlantic.
The U.N. Committee Against Torture says torture and ill treatment are widespread in China and remain deeply entrenched in the country's criminal justice system. Lisa Schlein takes a look.
The group of 10 independent experts says a Chinese delegation, which presented its case to the U.N. Committee, acknowledges torture is a big problem in China, but it says the delegation did not provide data on the extent and prevalence of this outlawed practice.
The panel said China's delegation also did not provide information on how many people have died in custody, how many people are being held incommunicado in secret places of detention, known as "black jails," and how many cases of torture have been raised and investigated.

Tanzanians marked their country's independence [today] day on Wednesday not with a parade but by cleaning the streets.
President John Magufuli was 1 of several top officials who picked up trash around the capital, Dar es Salaam. It's part of a nationwide clean-up exercise.
The newly-elected President, who campaigned on promises to reduce corruption and waste, said last month he was canceling the traditional independence day festivities to save money.
An overnight Taliban assault Tuesday on a key airport in southern Afghanistan killed 37 people and wounded 35. The violence continued into Wednesday.
A group of at least 10 heavily armed suicide bombers wearing uniforms of Afghan security forces stormed the airfield in Kandahar.
With time running out at the climate talks near Paris, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry is urging nations to set aside differences and reach a strong agreement.
With just hours left to go to reach a climate deal, Secretary of State Kerry summed up his message in just a few words.
"Our task is clear, our moment is now. Let's get this job done.”
Negotiators now have less than 2 days to reach an agreement aimed to limit global warming to 2 degrees Celsius or less over pre-industrial levels.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Marti Johnson reporting from Washington. President Barack Obama says Americans will not be terrorized in reaction to the California mass shooting which the FBI confirms is being investigated as an act of terrorism.
In today's weekly address, Mr. Obama said despite the massacre "we will uphold our values as a free and open society. And we will not be terrorized.”
"More broadly, this tragedy reminds us of our obligation to do everything in our power, together, to keep our communities safe. We know that the killers in San Bernardino used military-style assault weapons, weapons of war, to kill as many people as they could. It's another tragic reminder that here in America it's way too easy for dangerous people to get their hands on a gun.”
The Islamic State terrorist group says the killers were involved in the California massacre as supporters of the organization. The group made its first public comments about the mass killing in a radio broadcast today, but did not express direct involvement in the attack.
Meantime, the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation is stepping up its investigation into the massacre after determining the married couple, Tashfeen Malik and her husband Syed Rizwan Farook, were responsible for the attack and committed an act of terrorism.
They say that Tashfeen Malik pledged allegiance to the IS group on social media, but so far Director Comey says there is no evidence linking her husband to the group.
"The investigation so far has developed indications of radicalization by the killers and of a potential inspiration by foreign terrorist organizations.”
Both husband and wife were killed fleeing in a rented vehicle.
Three suicide bombers attacked a market in Chad today, killing at least 27 people.
Officials say the attack took place on an island along Lake Chad's western coast, where a weekly market was in progress.
This is VOA news.
British warplanes carried out [a strike of] a round of airstrikes on Islamic State targets in Syria late Friday, hitting oilfields.
British Defense Minister Michael Fallon said in a statement today two Typhoon fighter-bombers joined the campaign for the first time, hitting an oilfield in eastern Syria.
"Last night, the RAF Typhoon aircraft, our newest aircraft, that had arrived from Britain the day before were in action and successfully striking oil well heads in eastern Syria. It is oil that underpins the terrorism that we've seen and helps ISIL Daesh finance their terrorist operations.”
British Prime Minister David Cameron appeared before parliament to make his case for the British involvement, saying the airstrikes will be part of a wider strategy to overcome Islamic State, which uses oilfields to fund attacks on the West.
Afghanistan's Taliban says it has received a voice message from its supreme leader, Mullah Akhtar Mansour, that he refutes claims about his involvement in a gunfight and even supposed death earlier this week.
In the message, Mansour stressed he is safe and healthy, and denied rifts inside Taliban leadership, according to the group's spokesperson.
The spokesman said earlier Mansour's message will be released soon to the news media.
The Afghan government announced on Wednesday that Mansour was seriously wounded when a gunfire broke out during a meeting of Taliban commanders in neighboring Pakistan.
Officials from 195 nations around the world are this week attending the U.N. Climate Change Conference in Paris and have approved a new draft for a climate deal.
Coming after four years of negotiations, the proposal is meant to offer nations options to reduce emissions of climate-altering greenhouse gases.
Critics say many unresolved issues remain to be hammered out before the COP 21 conference ends on Friday, including who should bear the burden of paying for new directives.
Representatives objected to some industrialized countries' efforts to set conditions for the funding.
The U.S. space agency has released a series of sharp images of Pluto, describing them as the best close-ups we might see of the planet for decades.
NASA's New Horizons spacecraft photographed Pluto during its July flyby and continues to transmit data stored on its digital recorders.
The latest pictures which were released Friday show a wide variety of cratered, mountainous and glacial terrains.
Meantime, President Juan Manual Santos of Colombia says he will release more details today about the discovery of a Spanish galleon that sank more than 300 years ago with what would be the modern-day equivalent of about $1 billion worth of gold and precious stones on board.
Santos said in a tweet Friday the details will be given in a news conference in Cartagena today. We'll be looking forward that next hour.

VOA news for Saturday, November 28th, 2015

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Molly Johnson reporting. The war of words between Russia and Turkey continues.
The subject is downing of a Russian warplane earlier this week, with Turkish [Prime Minister] President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan warning Moscow not to "play with fire.”
Speaking from Bayburt, Erdoğan accused Russia of "playing with fire" by attacking groups opposed to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad "under the pretext" of fighting ISIS, and by "irresponsibly" targeting trucks operating inside Syria for "commercial or humanitarian activities.”
Turkey's state-run news agency and a Turkish relief group reported Wednesday that Russian aircraft attacked a Turkish aid convoy inside Syria near the Turkish border, killing seven people and wounding 10.
[Turkey] Russia reacted angrily after Turkish fighter jets shot down the warplane [Thursday] Tuesday, rather, threatening ties between the two countries on opposite sides in the Syrian war and raising fears of a wider international conflict.
Meantime, the detention of two prominent journalists in Turkey is provoking national and international criticism. Dorian Jones reports from Istanbul.
Condemnation is growing over the jailing of two leading Turkish journalists. Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu, the leader of the main opposition Republican People's Party, described the arrests as a black day for democracy and freedom of press.
The U.S. embassy, in a tweet, expressed great concern about what it said appears to be another media outlet under pressure. The editor of Turkey's Cumhuriyet newspaper, Can Dündar and his Ankara bureau chief, Erdem Gül, are facing more than 20 years in jail on spying charges.
Dündar, speaking before his trial on Thursday, expressed defiance. He said he and Gül are journalists, not traitors or spies.
Dorian Jones, VOA news, Istanbul.
Also today, Russia announced no more travel between the two countries without visas.
This is VOA news.
French President François Hollande presiding over today's national memorial service for victims promised to crush "the army of fanatics" who carried out this month's deadly attacks in Paris.
The commemoration held at a monument in Paris began with the somber reading of the names and ages of 130 people who died in the attacks claimed by the Islamic State group.
It has been now two weeks since Islamic State militants swept through Paris, setting off suicide vests and opening fire on innocent victims in several locations.
The ceremony was attended by top French leaders and families of victims as well as some of the hundreds injured in France's worst ever terrorist attack.
German police said today they have released two men arrested a few days ago on suspicion of planning a "serious" attack against the state.
Police told local media no evidence was found to hold the men who were detained on the outskirts of Berlin following a raid on an Islamic cultural center.
Authorities cleared the area surrounding the men's vehicle after the raid and said that the vehicle was supposed to contain a suspicious object, but that object turned out to be harmless, with no weapons or explosives found.
Authorities in Mali have arrested two men in connection with the terrorist attack that killed 22 people at an upscale Bamako hotel. Katarina Hoije has the latest review from Bamako.
Amadou Sangho of the Ministry for Security and Civil Protection says a cell phone found Thursday at the hotel led to the arrest of two Malian men.
He says, "This new piece of evidence. This item, we hope it will bring the investigation forward.”
He said the two suspects were picked up by Malian special forces in Bamako.
Gunmen entered the Radisson Blu hotel the morning of November 20, firing indiscriminately at guests and staff. Survivors say they then headed for the two uppermost floors, specifically looking for foreigners.
Authorities still have not identified the bodies of the two gunmen killed during the siege.
Katarina Hoije, VOA news, Bamako.
And police in Colorado Springs, Colorado, have been exchanging gunfire with a shooter inside the city's branch at the Planned Parenthood organization.
Police confirmed four officers wounded several civilians. They say the area is not secure. They also warned media to stay back from what they called an active shooter scene.
Planned Parenthood is controversial and sometimes comes under attacks in the United States, which are ???illegal because some of its branches perform abortions, although the bulk of its work is to provide women's healthcare and screenings.
And Chicago police say they have made an arrest in a shooting death of a 9-year-old boy. They have picked up a 27-year-old Corey Morgan charged with first-degree murder in the death of Tyshawn Lee.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. He is dead.
Authorities are confirming that the suspected ringleader of last week's Paris attacks was killed in a police raid Wednesday. Officials say Abdelhamid Abaaoud had also been implicated in four of six foiled attacks this year.
European Union justice and interior ministers will hold crisis talks in Brussels Friday to discuss security issues raised by the Paris attacks.
French lawmakers voted Thursday to extend by three months the state of emergency declared after last week's attacks.
U.S. President Barack Obama says efforts to defeat the Islamic State group will not succeed until there is a political agreement in Syria. Mr. Obama said he does not believe that agreement should leave President Bashar al-Assad in power.
The president spoke Thursday on the sidelines of an Asia-Pacific conference in the Philippines.
The Republican-led U.S. House of Representatives voted Thursday to suspend President Barack Obama's plan to resettle 10,000 Iraqi and Syrian refugees in the United States in the next year. Mr. Obama is promising to veto the measure if it passes the Senate and says he anticipates his resettlement plan will go forward.
The House vote was 289-137.
Russia has signed an agreement to build the first nuclear power plant in Egypt. The announcement concerning the Dabaa nuclear power station project came during a televised ceremony attended by Egyptian President Fattah el-Sissi.
Egypt's nuclear energy agency and Russia's Rosatom company signed the agreement on Thursday.
This is VOA news.
The fallout from the Islamic State group's terrorist attacks in Paris has put the future of Europe's passport-free travel area, known as the "Schengen Zone," in doubt. Henry Ridgwell reports.
The Paris attackers were seemingly free to roam across Europe, coordinating the assault in France and Belgium.
The continent's Schengen Zone allows people to travel without passport checks across 26 countries. It is a cornerstone of the European Union, but its problems have been exposed, says border security specialist Calum Jeffray of Britain's Royal United Services Institute.
"I think particularly over the next few months you'll see countries quietly strengthening different aspects of their border security.”
France has called on its European partners to urgently improve security and intelligence.
Henry Ridgwell, London.
Western officials, as well as allies in the Middle East, are trying to keep a close watch on what may be a growing chemical weapons program by the Islamic State terrorist group.
French Prime Minister Manuel Valls issued a warning on Thursday.
Kurdish officials have repeatedly accused Islamic State fighters of trying to employ chemical weapons in Iraq and Syria.
The leading candidate for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination is calling for a more aggressive American campaign against Islamic State terrorists.
Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says a bigger U.S. aerial bombardment against the militants is needed.
"This is a time for American leadership. No other country can rally the world to defeat ISIS and win the generational struggle against radical jihadism.”
Clinton said the goal should not be to contain the terrorist group, but to defeat it.
A majority of parliamentarians in Tanzania Thursday approved Majaliwa Kassim Majaliwa as the new prime minister. He pledged to work with the opposition.
President John Magufuli appointed Majaliwa, who [is a junior minister] was a junior minister for former President Jakaya Kikwete.
Two people have been killed and two wounded in a stabbing attack in the Israeli city of Tel Aviv. Reports say bystanders detained the Palestinian suspect after Thursday's attack and handed him over to police.
Israeli state radio says security forces are searching for another person who apparently assisted the attacker.
Police used water cannon Thursday to disrupt protests in Manila. The protests were aimed at Asia-Pacific leaders as they wrapped up a summit.
Left-wing protesters wanted to gain closer access to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit.
There were no reports of injuries.
The United Nations General Assembly's Human Rights Committee has again rebuked Iran for human rights violations. Earlier Thursday, the committee also passed a similar resolution condemning human rights violations in North Korea.

The continent's Schengen Zone allows people to travel without passport checks across 26 countries. It is a cornerstone of the European Union, but its problems have been exposed, says border security specialist Calum Jeffray of Britain's Royal United Services Institute.
"I think particularly over the next few months you'll see countries quietly strengthening different aspects of their border security.”
France has called on its European partners to urgently improve security and intelligence.
Henry Ridgwell, London.
Western officials, as well as allies in the Middle East, are trying to keep a close watch on what may be a growing chemical weapons program by the Islamic State terrorist group.
French Prime Minister Manuel Valls issued a warning on Thursday.
Kurdish officials have repeatedly accused Islamic State fighters of trying to employ chemical weapons in Iraq and Syria.
The leading candidate for the 2016 Democratic presidential nomination is calling for a more aggressive American campaign against Islamic State terrorists.
Former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says a bigger U.S. aerial bombardment against the militants is needed.
"This is a time for American leadership. No other country can rally the world to defeat ISIS and win the generational struggle against radical jihadism.”
Clinton said the goal should not be to contain the terrorist group, but to defeat it.
A majority of parliamentarians in Tanzania Thursday approved Majaliwa Kassim Majaliwa as the new prime minister. He pledged to work with the opposition.
President John Magufuli appointed Majaliwa, who [is a junior minister] was a junior minister for former President Jakaya Kikwete.
Two people have been killed and two wounded in a stabbing attack in the Israeli city of Tel Aviv. Reports say bystanders detained the Palestinian suspect after Thursday's attack and handed him over to police.
Israeli state radio says security forces are searching for another person who apparently assisted the attacker.
Police used water cannon Thursday to disrupt protests in Manila. The protests were aimed at Asia-Pacific leaders as they wrapped up a summit.
Left-wing protesters wanted to gain closer access to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit.
There were no reports of injuries.
The United Nations General Assembly's Human Rights Committee has again rebuked Iran for human rights violations. Earlier Thursday, the committee also passed a similar resolution condemning human rights violations in North Korea.

I'm Dave DeForest reporting. An environmental summit to get underway.
About 150 world leaders are expected to attend Monday the start of the United Nations climate summit. The goal of the summit is to limit average global warming to 2 degrees Celsius, perhaps less compared to pre-industrial revolution levels.
Hundreds of thousands of protesters on Sunday called for the adoption of worldwide environmental controls. The protests in Paris turned violent, with police firing tear gas and detaining about 200 demonstrators.
Syrian activists say airstrikes believed to be from Russian planes killed at least 18 people and wounded 40 in northern Syria. The strike is reported to have hit a busy marketplace.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the strikes happened in the town of Ariha.
The European Union Sunday agreed to a $3.2 billion aid package to help Turkey deal with a current migration crisis. The agreement came at a meeting in Brussels.
Donald Tusk is the president of the European Council: "We, the European Union, will strengthen our support to refugees in Turkey and the region, stem irregular migration, work on returns, increase our support to visa liberalization and crack down, together, on the criminal smugglers' networks.”
The largest group of Syrian migrants arriving in Europe this year have passed through Turkey on the way to Greece or Bulgaria.
Pope Francis is calling on warring parties in the Central African Republic to lay down their weapons and support efforts to end sectarian strife.
The pope arrived in the CAR capital of Bangui Sunday to promote peace and co-existence.
This is VOA news.
Israel has suspended diplomatic contacts with the European Union related to the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. The action is being taken to protest an EU move to label products manufactured in Israeli settlements in the West Bank and other Israeli so-called occupied territories.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced the move Sunday, saying contacts with EU bodies and their representatives will remain suspended until his government completes a reevaluation process.
In Burkina Faso, counting is underway after voters went to the polls Sunday to elect their president and parliament. Fourteen candidates are vying to be the next president. Emilie Iob has this report.
The three frontrunners are longtime opposition leader Zéphirin Diabré, former Prime Minister and Compaore's stalwart-turned-dissident Roch Marc Christian Kaboré and lawyer Bénéwendé Sankara.
The results are expected to be tight, with a good possibility of a second round run-off. The turnout is expected to be high.
Long lines of voters were observed in the capital city, Ouagadougou, even before polling stations opened.
The electoral commission said it intends to announce the results sometime Monday.
Emilie Iob, in Ouagadougou.
The U.S. government has ended its bulk collection of data from telephone calls of millions of Americans.
The move follows a controversy that erupted with a disclosure by former government contractor Edward Snowden of the secret collection program.
The U.S. security agency will now employ more tightly targeted surveillance methods.
Under the program that is now ending, the government collected information about phone calls including their duration and the phone numbers involved, but the actual content of the calls was not monitored, recorded or collected.
Turkey said Sunday it is returning the body of a pilot who died after parachuting out of a Russian jet that was shot down by Turkish forces last week.
Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu said the body was taken to Turkey late Saturday and was being treated according to Eastern Orthodox tradition.
Thousands of people have gathered in Turkey for the funeral of prominent pro-Kurdish lawyer and human rights activist Tahir Elçi.
Elçi was killed on Saturday during a gunbattle between Kurdish rebels and security forces in the southeastern city of Diyarbakir. Two policemen were also killed in the violence.
Leaders of Afghanistan and Pakistan are expected to hold an "ice-breaking" meeting on the margins of the U.N. climate change summit that starts Monday in Paris.
Pakistani officials and a group of senior Pashtun nationalist leaders say Afghan President Ashraf Ghani has agreed to meet with Pakistani Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in Paris.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. The U.S. president reacts to the terrorist attacks on Paris.
U.S. President Barack Obama says it would be a mistake to send American ground troops to the Middle East to fight Islamic State militants Speaking at the end of the G-20 summit in Turkey, Mr. Obama defended the U.S. military's air campaign in Iraq and Syria to support regional fighters.
The American leader rejected calls from some of his U.S. political opponents that only Syrian Christians and not Muslims be allowed to enter the U.S. as refugees. He calls such a stance "shameful and not American.”
At least ten U.S. governors are balking at letting Syrian refugees settle in their states.
French President François Hollande says his government will step up its offensive in Syria, where Friday's terrorist attack had been planned. Lisa Bryant takes a look.
Speaking at a rare joint session of parliament, French President François Hollande called for tighter European border controls and new powers to expel people deemed a national security threat.
He described as state of war against the Islamic State group, which has taken responsibility for attacks that killed at least 129 people Friday in Paris.
Lisa Bryant, Paris.
Also Monday, French authorities detained 23 people in police raids across the country.
And U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry landed in Paris Monday under heavy security to show solidarity with France.
At least seven people were killed in Somalia's capital in a shootout between soldiers at a displaced persons' camp.
Witnesses say the shooting occurred Monday as people in the camp lined up to obtain food cards. A camp resident says a soldier tried to move people into the line, sparking a dispute that escalated into gunfire.
This is VOA news.
A new video attributed to the Islamic State is warning of a Paris-style attack on Washington.
The unverified video, appearing on social media Monday, threatened all countries involved in military operations against the militant group, saying they will suffer the same fate as France.
A senior United Nations official is warning of a potential migration crisis in the Sahel region of Africa. Lisa Schlein reports.
The United Nations says the Sahel countries are among the nations most at risk for crises and disasters. It reports more than 24 million people in the nine Sahelian countries are expected to suffer from moderate to severe hunger next year. It warns about 750,000 children across the region will lose their lives because of malnutrition-related causes.
Lisa Schlein, Geneva.
Myanmar opposition leader Aung San Suu Kyi attended the closing session of the current parliament on Monday.
Her party, the National League for Democracy, recently won a landslide victory over the government- and military-backed Union Solidarity and Development Party.
The NLD will have an absolute majority in the new parliament.
South Korea's Yonhap news agency says U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon will travel to Pyongyang, North Korea, later this week for a possible meeting with Kim Jong Un.
Seventeen Angolans accused of planning a rebellion and coup have gone on trial in Luanda.
Authorities arrested the activists in June after they met to discuss a book called "From Dictatorship to Democracy.”
Their defense lawyer told the court Monday charges should be dropped because the activists broke no laws and have a constitutional right to freedom of speech.
Amnesty International calls the trial a "travesty of justice.”
Israeli troops shot and killed at least two Palestinians when clashes erupted during an attempt to destroy the house of a suspected Palestinian attacker. The home being targeted was that of Mohammed Abu Shahin accused of killing an Israeli man last June.
The Israeli military says hundreds of Palestinians threw rocks and firebombs at security forces prompting them to return fire Monday at the Qalandia refugee camp near Ramallah.
Nicaragua has sent more than 1,000 Cuban migrants, heading to the United States, back to Costa Rica, accusing Costa Rica of deliberately sparking a humanitarian crisis.
The crisis began last week when Costa Rica said it would issue temporary transit visas to more than 1,000 Cubans who crossed into the country from Panama.
Costa Rica's immigration chief said the government initially was deporting Cubans who arrived without proper visas, but criminal gangs began using the deportation process to facilitate the illegal transportation of migrants to the United States.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David DeForest reporting. Officials look for a terrorism suspect.
Moroccan authorities say Belgium has formally requested help in tracking a key suspect in the Paris massacres.
A statement from Rabat said Belgium's king had asked Morocco's king for cooperation in finding Salah Abdeslam. Abdeslam has avoided arrest since crossing into Belgium from Paris hours after the November 13 terrorist attacks.
Brussels, meanwhile, remains on lockdown and police there are pressing forward with a search for other terrorist suspects.
The city streets and roadways were largely empty, with the city's subway and shops closed for a third day.
Late Monday, the U.S. State Department issued a worldwide travel alert warning Americans that Islamic State extremists and other terrorist organizations continue planning attacks in multiple regions.
And less than two weeks after the deadly attacks in Paris, U.S. President Barack Obama will welcome his French counterpart, François Hollande, to the Oval Office on Tuesday.
British Prime Minister David Cameron offered France new assistance Monday for its airstrikes against Islamic State insurgents in Syria. He said he will ask the British parliament later in the week to approve joining the fight against the jihadists.
"... how such action would be one element of a comprehensive and long term strategy to defeat ISIL in parallel with major international effort to bring an end to the war in Syria." :David Cameron.
The United States has imposed sanctions on four Burundians it says have contributed to the turmoil in the Central African country.
President Barack Obama took action against the four men with an executive order issued on Monday.

Eurozone finance ministers have approved a $2.1 billion bailout for Greece. The move follows Greece's acceptance last week of key economic reforms.
New austerity measures include higher taxes on wine and road use as well as more limited protection for distressed mortgage holders.
The government is racing to complete a bailout supported recapitalization of its troubled banks before the end of 2015 and still faces a long list of more painful measures that include an overhaul of the national pension system.
A Palestinian attacker stabbed two Israelis at a gas station on the edge of the West Bank on Monday. One of the two Israelis has died. The Palestinian was shot and killed by authorities.
Earlier, Israeli police in Jerusalem shot and killed one Palestinian teenager and wounded another after the two stabbed an elderly man with scissors.
A U.S. official says American special forces will go into northern Syria very "very soon" on a mission to help coordinate local fighters and the efforts of a U.S.-led coalition targeting Islamic State militants.
As winter approaches in Afghanistan, the Taliban offensive continues with a much greater intensity than it previously did [does] at this time of year. Ayaz Gul takes a look.
Late last week, the Taliban seized control of the remote Yamgan district in northeastern Badakhshan province.
The Islamist insurgency has expanded its activities in northern Afghanistan particularly after it briefly captured the strategically important city of Kunduz in September.
Interior Ministry spokesman Sediq Sediqi says Afghan forces have launched an operation to evict the insurgents, promising "good results" very soon.
Ayaz Gul, Islamabad.
Mali began three days of mourning Monday for the victims of Friday's hotel attack that killed 19 people. Neighboring Senegal, Mauritania and Guinea are also observing mourning periods.
Malian authorities are searching for at least three suspects they believe are connected to the attack.
A new poll shows the level of trust among Americans for their government is at the [lowest] one of the lowest levels in the past half-century.
According to a Pew Research Center survey which was released on Monday, only 19 percent of Americans trust the government "always or most of the time.”
This is in stark contrast to just 15 years ago, when 60 percent of Americans said they trusted the government.
A mere 20 percent described government-run programs as well-run.
The survey found Americans view elected officials as dishonest and selfish compared to "typical Americans." Seventy-four percent said elected officials act in their personal interest rather than in the country's interest.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm David Byrd reporting. Brussels is on high alert after fears of a Paris-like attack.
Heavily armed security forces patrolled the streets and subways were closed in Belgium's capital on Saturday as the government warned of a risk of attacks similar to the one that left 130 people dead in Paris.
Prime Minister Charles Michel said the alert level was raised to its highest based on what he called "precise information" that authorities obtained.
Didier Reynders is Belgium's foreign minister. "That's the reason why we have taken new measures to organize security of the country, to organize maybe some precise measures for the transportation system like subway and buses.”
The principal suspect in the Paris attacks, Salah Abdeslam, is still on the loose. Belgian authorities are concerned that he could be planning an attack in Brussels.
U.S. President Barack Obama condemned what he called the "appalling" terrorist attack, that is, at a hotel in Bamako, Mali, that left 21 people dead Friday.
Speaking at the ASEAN summit in Malaysia, Obama said the assault in Bamako will only stiffen U.S. resolve to combat terrorism.
"Like the heinous attacks we saw in Paris and attacks we see all too often elsewhere, this is another awful reminder that the scourge of terrorism threatens so many of our nations. And once again, this barbarity only stiffens our resolve to meet this challenge.”
Two West African militant groups, al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb and its affiliate El Mourabitoune, have claimed joint responsibility for the attack.
A U.S. defense official called al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb the leading suspect.
This is VOA news.
Security sources in Cameroon say at least 10 people were killed in a suicide bombing carried out by suspected members of the Islamist militant group Boko Haram.
Saturday's blast in the far northern region of Cameroon marked the latest deadly attack by Boko Haram, which has targeted Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Nigeria in recent months.
Boko Haram's bloody campaign for a strict Islamist state in northeastern Nigeria has left thousands of people dead. Neighboring countries such as Cameroon joined an offensive against the group earlier this year, and the conflict has spilled across their borders.
Israeli police say a stabbing attack in southern Israel wounded four people, the latest incident in a wave of clashes between Israelis and Palestinians.
The stabbing occurred in the city of Kiryat Gat.
Police were still searching for at least one attacker who fled the scene.
The recent violence has left 15 Israelis and at least 86 Palestinians dead. It began in September when rumors swept through Palestinian neighborhoods that Israel was planning to take over the East Jerusalem holy site known to Muslims as the al-Aqsa Mosque and to Jews as the Temple Mount.
Israeli-Palestinian tensions are sure to be on Secretary of State John Kerry's agenda when he travels to the Middle East Sunday. The trip will focus also on the Islamic State group and the conflict in Syria.
Kerry plans stops in Israel, the West Bank and the United Arab Emirates during his three-say visit.
While in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Ramallah, the secretary will discuss bilateral and regional security issues, including Syria and the Islamic State. He will also discuss bilateral and regional political insecurity issues during a stop in Abu Dhabi.
Bangladesh has executed two influential opposition leaders for war crimes committed during the country's 1971 war for independence against Pakistan.
Bangladesh Nationalist Party leader Salauddin Quader Chowdhury and Jamaat-e-Islami Secretary-General Ali Ahsan Mohammad Mujahid were hanged in Dhaka Central Jail early Saturday.
A special tribunal had convicted the two men in 2013 on charges including rape, genocide and torture during the 1971 war.
The Bangladesh Supreme Court had rejected their appeals against their death sentences.
U.S. lawmakers and human rights groups have said the tribunal proceedings were fraud.
And police in southern Honduras have arrested two Pakistani men and a Syrian woman, accusing them of being in the country illegally and possibly trying to get to the United States.

Prime Minister Charles Michel said the alert level was raised to its highest based on what he called "precise information" that authorities obtained.
Didier Reynders is Belgium's foreign minister. "That's the reason why we have taken new measures to organize security of the country, to organize maybe some precise measures for the transportation system like subway and buses.”
The principal suspect in the Paris attacks, Salah Abdeslam, is still on the loose. Belgian authorities are concerned that he could be planning an attack in Brussels.
U.S. President Barack Obama condemned what he called the "appalling" terrorist attack, that is, at a hotel in Bamako, Mali, that left 21 people dead Friday.
Speaking at the ASEAN summit in Malaysia, Obama said the assault in Bamako will only stiffen U.S. resolve to combat terrorism.
"Like the heinous attacks we saw in Paris and attacks we see all too often elsewhere, this is another awful reminder that the scourge of terrorism threatens so many of our nations. And once again, this barbarity only stiffens our resolve to meet this challenge.”
Two West African militant groups, al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb and its affiliate El Mourabitoune, have claimed joint responsibility for the attack.
A U.S. defense official called al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb the leading suspect.
This is VOA news.
Security sources in Cameroon say at least 10 people were killed in a suicide bombing carried out by suspected members of the Islamist militant group Boko Haram.
Saturday's blast in the far northern region of Cameroon marked the latest deadly attack by Boko Haram, which has targeted Cameroon, Chad, Niger and Nigeria in recent months.
Boko Haram's bloody campaign for a strict Islamist state in northeastern Nigeria has left thousands of people dead. Neighboring countries such as Cameroon joined an offensive against the group earlier this year, and the conflict has spilled across their borders.
Israeli police say a stabbing attack in southern Israel wounded four people, the latest incident in a wave of clashes between Israelis and Palestinians.
The stabbing occurred in the city of Kiryat Gat.
Police were still searching for at least one attacker who fled the scene.
The recent violence has left 15 Israelis and at least 86 Palestinians dead. It began in September when rumors swept through Palestinian neighborhoods that Israel was planning to take over the East Jerusalem holy site known to Muslims as the al-Aqsa Mosque and to Jews as the Temple Mount.
Israeli-Palestinian tensions are sure to be on Secretary of State John Kerry's agenda when he travels to the Middle East Sunday. The trip will focus also on the Islamic State group and the conflict in Syria.
Kerry plans stops in Israel, the West Bank and the United Arab Emirates during his three-say visit.
While in Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Ramallah, the secretary will discuss bilateral and regional security issues, including Syria and the Islamic State. He will also discuss bilateral and regional political insecurity issues during a stop in Abu Dhabi.
Bangladesh has executed two influential opposition leaders for war crimes committed during the country's 1971 war for independence against Pakistan.
Bangladesh Nationalist Party leader Salauddin Quader Chowdhury and Jamaat-e-Islami Secretary-General Ali Ahsan Mohammad Mujahid were hanged in Dhaka Central Jail early Saturday.
A special tribunal had convicted the two men in 2013 on charges including rape, genocide and torture during the 1971 war.
The Bangladesh Supreme Court had rejected their appeals against their death sentences.
U.S. lawmakers and human rights groups have said the tribunal proceedings were fraud.
And police in southern Honduras have arrested two Pakistani men and a Syrian woman, accusing them of being in the country illegally and possibly trying to get to the United States.

From Washington, this is VOA news. I'm Dave DeForest reporting. Belgium emerges.
With police officers standing guard, schools and about half of the metro system in Brussels reopened on Wednesday that had been locked down after the Paris terrorist attacks last week.
U.S. President Barack Obama is telling Americans that he knows of no specific or credible intelligence that indicates an attack on America over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend.
"We continue to do everything possible to prevent attacks at home and abroad and to prevent foreign terrorist fighters from entering the United States or other nations.”
The President spoke after meeting with his national security team.
Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said Wednesday Turkey's downing of a Russian warplane, in his words, "looks like a planned provocation," but he said Russia is not going to war with Turkey.
Lavrov said the incident will make Russia reconsider its relationship with Turkey.
A U.S. defense official says the Pentagon is monitoring reports that a convoy of humanitarian vehicles was hit by an airstrike Wednesday near Azaz, Syria.
Reuters video shows aid trucks on fire near the Bab al-Salam border crossing. It was not immediately clear to which group the trucks belonged.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights reports that the warplanes bombing in the vicinity of Azaz are believed to be Russian.
The Islamic State group has claimed responsibility for Tuesday's bombing of a bus carrying members of Tunisia's elite Presidential guard.
In a statement posted on social media Wednesday, the Islamic State group named the militant that carried out the attack. The bus was traveling in the center of the capital, Tunis, and at least 12 people were killed in the incident.
This is VOA news.
Pope Francis has arrived in Kenya at the start of a tour of Africa, where he was given a red-carpet welcome by Kenya's President Uhuru Kenyatta.
Besides Kenya, the pontiff also plans stops later on in Uganda and the Central African Republic.
Jill Craig has more.
The mood was 1 of jubilation, as evidenced by a self-described "staunch Catholic," Purity Ndemo.
"I'm very excited. I've never seen him. I've been seeing him on TV, so I can't wait to see him live.”
A sentiment echoed by non-Catholic Michael Nyamongo.
"I mean, I'm just happy. At least for the 1st time, the pope is coming to Africa, and I have the experience to see him come to Africa. It's just nice. It's just fantastic.”
The pope is expected to address topics like helping the poor, giving hope to youth, caring for the environment and leading through good governance throughout the course of his African tour.
Jill Craig, Nairobi.
A U.S. military investigation concluded Wednesday that American and Afghan forces misdirected a target in Kunduz, Afghanistan, last month. That mistake resulted in an aerial attack on a hospital that killed at least 31 people, mostly doctors and patients.
The report said the crew of a U.S. plane had intended to hit a compound believed to have been seized by Taliban fighters. But based on a physical description of the target provided by Afghan forces on the ground, the crew instead fired at a hospital operated by Doctors Without Borders.
Christopher Stokes is the general director of the charity: "We see this catalogue of errors, this multiplicity of different mistakes that occurred, as being some kind of sign of gross negligence in a way." :Christopher Stokes.
U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry has warned that ongoing violence in Israel and the West Bank could "spin out of control." He made the statement after a trip to the region where he met with the leaders of Israel and the Palestinians.
Since September, a wave of Palestinian stabbings, shootings and car rammings have killed at least 19 Israelis and an American student. Many of the Palestinian attackers themselves were killed in confrontations with authorities.
Ukraine has closed its airspace to all Russian planes and has stopped buying Russian natural gas after exporter Gazprom announced it would halt deliveries to the country.
And Ukrainian Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk said at a cabinet meeting Wednesday that the government has decided to ban all Russian flights from crossing Ukraine's airspace "as an issue of the national security as well as a response to Russia's aggressive actions.”
Last month, Ukraine banned all Russian airlines from landing in Ukraine, but Russian planes have been allowed so far to fly over Ukrainian territory.
