Renewed Violence in Israel

There have been more than a dozen knife attacks in Israel this month and several killings in an escalation of violence between Israelis and Palestinians. The Israeli Government has ordered parts of east Jerusalem to be sealed off. Analyst Gerso Baskin gives his view on the causes and what will likely happen.

The Dutch Safety Board have confirmed that the Malaysian Airlines Flight MH17 shot down more than a year ago, over Ukraine, was due to a Russian made Buk missile. Dutch journalist Jeroen Akkermans from RTL 4 News who did his own investigation on the flight has more.

An autopsy shows that the supposed remains of the former leader of Burkino Faso, Thomas Sankara, are "riddled with bullets". The body was exumed in May this year, almost three decades after his death. Thomas Sankara's brother Paul spoke to Newsday and gave his reaction to the autopsy.
