US Syria withdrawal

BBC OS gives a vibrant account of the day’s events with explanation and reaction from those involved.

We reflect the reaction to President Trump's decision to withdraw US troops from Syria. We use the expertise from BBC Arabic, BBC Persian and the BBC team in Turkey to help us understand the story. And we hear reaction in Uganda to President Museveni's criticism of the newly crowned Miss World Africa for "wearing Indian hair".
