Trump ‘completely wrong’ to restrict support for Ukraine, Italian minister tells BBC | BBC News
Italy’s defence minister has said it was a “complete mistake, a major mistake” for the US to limit access to satellite systems and intelligence used by Ukraine to defend itself against Russian attacks.
Guido Crosetto warned in a BBC interview that any such move by US President Donald Trump’s administration “makes absolutely no sense” and risked prolonging Russia’s full-scale invasion rather than helping to bring peace. Trump has denied asking for satellite access to be suspended.
Crosetto’s comments continue Italy’s sharpening criticism of the US.

Saudi Arabia’s energy minister has threatened a ‘serious’ response to the deadly Houthi attacks on Riyadh’s international airport. Flights remain suspended and are expected to remain so for days.
The Houthis said they launched the attacks in retaliation for “brutal Saudi aggression” against areas they control in western Yemen.
The BBC’s security correspondent Frank Gardner examines how it is that Saudia Arabia – which spends billions on its defence – can not stop the Houthis from attacking its people.

One person has been killed and 11 injured in a second strike on the international airport in the Saudi capital Riyadh, officials have said.
A Saudi military spokesman said a projectile had hit King Khalid International Airport on Sunday, causing a fire in a passenger hall. Saudi Arabia’s civil aviation authority said in a statement that one person, a Pakistani resident, had been killed in the attack.
It comes a day after a strike on the same airport killed 13 people and injured 308 others.
The Houthis in Yemen said they were behind them and warned airlines and passengers against using Saudi Arabian airports and airspace.

Inside the secret factories making Britain’s fake cigarettes – Behind The Investigation | BBC News
One in every six cigarettes smoked in the UK is counterfeit.
In this episode of BBC News Behind the Investigation, Melanie Stewart-Smith talks to File on 4 Investigates reporter Jane Deith about how the team uncovered the global criminal networks flooding Britain with fake cigarettes, and the human cost behind every cheap pack.
Jane explains how the team traced the supply chain from secret factories in Belgium to corner shops, minimarts and cash and carries across the UK.
We also look at why gangs are moving from drugs to fake cigarettes. A former senior Europol official says they now make as much money as they do from drugs, with far lower prison sentences if they’re caught. The profits are being used to fund weapons, people smuggling and even terrorism.
Do people really know what they’re funding when they buy cheap cigarettes?

Now YPG and YPJ has been armed by Peshmarga from Eastern Kurdistan, by U.S. aircraft. and Peshmarga from eastern Kurdistan will get to go through Turkey to help Kobane. so DAESH get big losses. and most of all, Turkey is going to be disappointed in DAESH.

When Israel defended itself and millions of its citizens who were under the attack from ideologically same group like ISIL, the only thing BBC was interested were the local "civilians casualties" Nothing beside the most disgusting manipulations with human emotions regarding children could be seen from this well known world center of Antisemitism and Anti-Israeli hypocricy
Now when Obama and Cameroon are attacking ISIL and causing at minimum 3 times as many collateral damage and civilian victims, we did not even hear a single story.

The Turkish regime is the biggest terrorist, they're providing weapons to ISIS so they slaughter the Kurds, disallowing The coalition to use their bases to attack the IS, the coalition airplanes are coming from 2000km away making the raids ineffective

What I don't understand, if anyone can explain, is with U.S. satellite technology plus spotter planes and drones, how can ISIS move across large stretches of open land in convoys without every vehicle and troop concentration being wiped out by air power. We should be able to completely destroy any convoy in open land. Why is that not happening?

Is anybody from Germany here? I'm trying to help a friend of mine who's a journalist student who is trying to find the whereabouts of the German rapper Deso Dogg/ Abu Talha Al Almani as well as of 2 former Arsenal players Fábio Poças/ Abdu Rahman Al Andalus and Abu Issa Al Andaluzi. If anybody could give me a twitter or facebook account of them, it would be great.
