First UN aid convoy for quake survivors crosses into rebel areas

Syria's ambassador to the United Nations has told the BBC that international aid reaching northwest Syria will be distributed fairly, regardless of the civil war.

We're in Bab al-Salameh - one of two reopened border points in Syria - where the UN's first convoys have crossed to deliver much needed aid to earthquake victims in the rebel controlled area.

In his first interview since losing elections in October, Brazil's former President Jair Bolsonaro says he plans to return from the US next month to lead the opposition.

And Remember Nikki Haley? - the former US ambassador to the UN wants to be President, but can she beat big hitters like Ron De Santis and Donald Trump to the Republican nomination?
