Paris Attacks
Attacks on several Paris locations; Kurds take strategic town; Myanmar future.
Mass shootings in Paris at multiple locations. Kurdish Peshmerga fighters backed by US air strikes have recaptured the Iraqi town of Sinjar, 15 months after it was seized by Islamic State militants. The University of California says a major glacier in Greenland, which has begun to break up and retreat into the sea, holds enough water to raise sea levels by half a metre. An elite South African university - Stellenbosch - wants to drop Afrikaans as the language of instruction and teach in English instead.
