Key IS Leader "Killed in Syria"

IS death; Chris Brown arrested; Menstrual apps

One of the longest-serving and most prominent leaders of so-called Islamic State (IS) has been killed in Syria, IS-affiliated media say. The Amaq News Agency reported that Abu Muhammad al-Adnani had died in the province of Aleppo.

US singer Chris Brown has been arrested on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon after a woman told police he had threatened her with a gun. The singer has several convictions for violence, including a 2009 assault on his then girlfriend, pop star Rihanna.

Worldwide, it's believed that there have been as many as 200 million downloads of apps which allow women to track their menstrual cycles. But one of the UK's leading medical colleges has warned that women shouldn't use these programmes as a form of contraception.
