Fifteen Inmates Transferred From Guantanamo
Guantanamo transfer; Syria napalm claims; Yellow fever
Fifteen inmates have been transferred from the US detention facility at Guantanamo Bay to the United Arab Emirates . It's the largest single transfer of detainees since Barack Obama has been president.
People living in a suburb just outside Syria's capital Damascus say their government is using napalm against them.
Yellow fever, a potentially deadly disease which is spread by mosquitoes, is endemic in many countries in Africa and South America. But after recent outbreaks in Angola and the Democratic Republic of Congo, and a shortage of global stocks of vaccine, could this become a global problem.
