The Syrian government has agreed to a ceasefire deal with rebel groups across the country, Russian President Vladimir Putin has announced.
Vladimir Putin has denied “any element of corruption” over the use of offshore financial services by those in his inner circle, and said the leaks were an attempt by his political opponents to destabilise Russia.
The Russian president’s announcement he will be pulling troops out of Syria has taken everyone by surprise.
As many as 50 people, including 12 children, have been killed in missile attacks on three separate hospitals in northern Syria.
The 2006 murder of former Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko was “probably” organised by Moscow’s FSB intelligence service and approved by Russian President Vladimir Putin, a public inquiry has concluded.
