Syria Kurds defend key town as Russia fills US void

Ras al-Ain (Syria) (AFP) - Kurdish fighters battled to defend a key Syrian border town from Turkish-backed forces on Tuesday as Russia seized on a US withdrawal to move its troops into new areas. The Damascus regime dispatched more forces to contain the Turkish advance, but its key backer Moscow deployed patrols to prevent clashes between the two sides. Washington slapped sanctions on its NATO ally in a bid to stop an assault triggered by its own abrupt pullout, but Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan said the operation would continue until "our objectives have been achieved".

A letter from a lawyer representing Giuliani sent to a lawyer for House leaders called the inquiry illegitimate, and said the information sought by lawmakers relating to his work in Ukraine is protected by attorney-client privilege and executive privilege. The move represents the latest effort by Trump and those close to him to refuse any cooperation with the inquiry. "In addition, the subpoena is overbroad, unduly burdensome, and seeks documents beyond the scope of legitimate inquiry," Jon Sale, the lawyer for Giuliani, wrote.

Prosecutors said Tuesday they want a New Mexico man convicted of killing his parents and three younger siblings when he was 15 to spend the rest of his life in prison. The recommendation came during a sentencing hearing where prosecutors described the 2013 killings by Nehemiah Griego as horrendous, callous and calculated. Griego, now 22, pleaded guilty to the crimes in 2015 and a judge earlier this year determined he should be sentenced as an adult following an appeal of an early sentence handed down by a children's court judge.

Cortisone injections for hip and knee pain lead to more complications than previously thought, research has found.  The anti-inflammatory jabs are used by athletes to mask pain, and to treat symptoms of osteoarthritis. But the study by Boston University School of Medicine found that the treatment could speed up a joint's disintegration and force patients to have total knee or hip replacements. Researchers found 10 per cent of their patients given injections in the hips in 2018 suffered complications, along with four per cent of those who had the jabs in the knees. These can include stress fractures, progressive osteoarthritis or even the collapse of joints. Study leader Dr Ali Guermazi,...
