FOUR CHILDREN KILLED IN GOVERNMENT SHELLING, SAYS SYRIA ACTIVISTS….

 Syrian activists say at least four children have been killed when government shelling hit their school in a rebel-held town outside the capital Damascus.
    The Ghouta Media Center and the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights say a shell landed Tuesday at the gate of a school in Jisreen, a town in the Eastern Ghouta suburbs of Damascus. The shelling killed five, including four children, and left many injured.
    Residents of the Eastern Ghouta suburbs have been living under a suffocating government blockade amid intense bombings. The violence and siege have continued even though the suburbs are part of ade-escalation agreement guaranteed by Syrian government backers Russia and Iran.

The United Nations on Monday said it reached thousands of the suburbs residents for the first time in over a month.

If not, the deployment of American soldiers in Niger is unlawful in violation of the War Powers Resolution, known as WPR, and an abus...

The announcement came a day after a federal judge had given an unnamed bank more time to respond to the congressional panel's subpoena to Fusion GPS, the research outfit that hired a former British spy to compile a dossier on presidential candidate Donald Trump. The Washington Free Beacon, a conservative online publication backed by billionaire Republican mega-donor Paul Singer, said on Friday it was the original funder of the Fusion GPS project to compile opposition research on multiple Republican presidential candidates, including Trump. Trump and other Republicans have alleged that Russians pai...
