Newsday

Available for 29 days

A spokesman for the Nigerian president, Bola Tinubu, said any US cooperation in fighting Islamist extremists was welcome if it was in collaboration with the government in Abuja. But he denied that Christians were being disproportionately targeted by jihadist insurgents. As the US government shutdown enters its second month, flight delays are affecting airports across the country - we'll hear from an air traffic controller who has not been receiving a regular salary and has had to work outside hours to make ends meet. And a retired Lebanese general will explain if he thinks the Lebanese government will give into mounting Israeli pressure to force the disarmament of the Hezbollah group.
