Islamic State 'getting stronger again in Iraq'

Newsday

Available for over a year

There are growing indications that the Islamic State group is re-organising in Iraq, two years after losing the last of its territory in the country; the Australian prime minister, Scott Morrison, has insisted there was no need for more rigorous carbon targets despite conceding that climate change helped cause extreme weather conditions; and there are calls for a UK government inquiry into racism in football after more allegations of racism from the crowd at a Premier League match.
