Airstrikes hit a hospital in a rebel-held area of Aleppo, Syria, and killed at least 27 people, including three children and the city’s last pediatrician, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Thursday. The al-Quds hospital was supported by international medical charity Médecins Sans Frontières, or Doctors Without Borders, which said the hospital was destroyed after being hit by a direct airstrike that killed at least three doctors. The head of a rescue service put the death toll at 50, saying most of the dead were in a building next door. Aleppo has been the epicenter of a military escalation that has helped to undermine U.N.-led peace talks in recent weeks. A cessation of hostilities agreement has unraveled and fighting has resumed on numerous fronts in western Syria. (Reuters) More Photo Below:   Source: Yahoo News 

Real Madrid   released the squad list for Saturday's match against   Real Sociedad. Goalkeepers:   Keylor Navas, Casilla and Yáñez. Defenders: Varane, Pepe, Ramos, Nacho, Marcelo, Carvajal and Danilo. Midfielders: James, Casemiro, Bale, Kovacic, Modric and Isco. Attackers: Lucas Vázquez, Jesé and Borja Mayoral. As expected,   Cristiano Ronaldo   and   Karim Benzema   will miss the game hoping to recover in time for the return leg against Manchester City next Wednesday. Jesé has finally been included after some reports suggested that he finished the match against City with a small injury as well. Zidane will have to make some changes in Real's Starting XI and players like James or Isco who have not been getting plenty of minutes lately will surely be hoping to get a chance to prove their worth against Real Sociedad in what will be a very important away game for Los Blancos if they want to keep the race for the Liga BBVA title alive.

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has obtained a remand order to keep the Managing Director of Fidelity Bank Plc, Mr. Nnamdi Okonkwo, and the bank’s Head of Operations, Mr. Martins Izuogbe, pending the outcome of investigations. A reliable source at the EFCC told our correspondent on Friday that the EFCC had been given permission to detain the suspects for 30 days. The source said, “On Thursday, we approached a court in Lagos, where we applied for a remand order. The court granted our prayer and gave us permission to hold them for 30 days pending the conclusion of investigations.” This implies that the two top bankers would spend the Workers’ Day holiday in detention. The anti-graft agency had arrested Okonkwo and Izuogbe earlier in the week for their alleged role in the distribution of $115m (N23bn) to officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission and election monitors about two days before the 2015 presidential election. The bank officials were said to have

The Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Limited, the world’s biggest lender and Nigeria’s Central Bank on Tuesday signed an agreement on yuan transactions. The Director General of the Foreign Ministry’s African Affairs Department, Lin Songtian, told reporters that the agreement “means that the renminbi (yuan) is free to flow among different banks in Nigeria and the renminbi has been included in the foreign exchange reserves of Nigeria”. According to Reuters, the agreement was reached following a meeting between Nigerian President Muhammadu Buhari and Chinese President, Xi Jinping. “Borrow Cheapest Possible Money” The agreement came before President Buhari attended the official opening ceremony of the Business Forum on China-Nigeria Production Capacity Cooperation holding in Beijing, China. A Nigerian government official had over the weekend said Nigeria was considering the possibility of issuing Chinese panda bond to make up for the deficit in the 2016 budget. Addres

The Executive Secretary of the commission, Professor Bem Angwe, gave the warning in Abuja on Tuesday while receiving a petition from the President of the Children’s Government in Nigeria and Cameroon, Zainab Mohammed. Professor Angwe criticised the increasing cases of child abuse in Nigeria and promised that culprits would be made to face the consequences of their actions. The National Human Rights Commission boss said that the commission was monitoring 48 cases of child abuse and the inhumane treatment being received by children who are out of the school system. ‎Zainab submitted the petition on behalf of Nigerian children. She appealed to the commission to take up the case of a four-year old pupil who was allegedly raped by the proprietor of her school in Mararaba, Nasarawa State, in order to protect the rights of children to a decent living.

  Lionel Messi's annual earnings of €74 million (£59.3 million) saw him top Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo and Barcelona team-mate Neymar as the world's highest-paid footballer in 2015. According to France Football (h/t AFP via Fox Sports), Ronaldo earned €67.4 million (£54 million), while Brazilian Neymar took in €43.5 million (£34.8 million) to keep the top three the same for the third year running. The report explained that the estimates took into account "players' pre-tax salaries, sponsorship revenues and various bonuses." It is little surprise that Neymar's earnings are significantly less than Ronaldo and Messi's, as it was recently alleged that his contract with Barca returns €5 million (£4 million) a year, per Football Leaks (via the Sun's Toby Gannon). Meanwhile, Forbes reported Messi's annual salary from the Catalan giants as $51.8 million (£36.2 million) and Ronaldo's as $52.6 million (£36.8 million) at Los Blancos.

  MOGADISHU, Somalia — A former journalist who joined the Islamic extremist group al-Shabab was executed in Somalia’s capital for the killings of five Somali journalists. Hassan Hanafi Haji, who was extradited from Kenya last year on the request of the Somali government, was killed by firing squad at a police academy in Mogadishu on Monday. Firing squad is the only execution method in Somalia. In his role as a liaison officer with Al-Shabab, Haji was known to threaten journalists and radio stations for any reporting not in favor of the Islamic extremist rebels, forcing many media outlets to practice self-censorship for security reasons. Haji later led al-Shabab’s media unit, inviting journalists to press conferences and giving them tours of battlefields. He often urged journalists to report according to al-Shabab’s media rules, which included avoiding stories related to the group’s military setbacks. Haji was one of the few suspects prosecuted by the Somali government follo

Julian Draxler once said, it would be a "dream" if Wolfsburg defeat Real Madrid. No, Draxler wasn't acting snide or sarcastic when he uttered the statement on Monday afternoon. It was the truth. After knocking off Barcelona on the weekend, Real Madrid seemed to be on top of the world. After all, they took a half-naked team selfie in the locker room to prove it. Well, if Wednesday's matchup with Wolfsburg proved anything, it's that dreams do come true. Zinedine Zidane deployed relatively the same lineup that trumped Barcelona in El Clásico. He kept 10 of his 11 starters, solely swapping out Dani Carvajal for Danilo. However after 45 minutes, that tactical change verified that Danilo has no business playing ahead of his Spanish counterpart. Contrary to the scoreline, Real Madrid started hot and gave off the impression that they'd leave Volkswagen Arena with a victory. Perhaps if the sideline judge obeyed Cristiano Ronaldo's finger wag or Karim B
