Morocco and Israel agree to normalise relations
Morocco is the fourth state to make such a deal with Israel since August.
US President Donald Trump sealed the agreement in a phone call on Thursday with Morocco’s King Mohammed VI.
As part of the deal, the US has agreed to recognise Morocco's claim over the disputed Western Sahara region.
In a landmark case in Kenya, the government must pay compensation for failing to protect four people from sexual violence which followed the country's disputed 2007 election.
And, after a two-year break, the Music of Black Origin Awards, also known as the MOBO Awards, has returned with a socially-distant show in London.
