Hello, I’m Neil Nunes with the BBC news.

The left wing Syriza party of Alexis Tsipras has been returned to power in Greece after winning the country's second general election this year. Mr. Tsipras hailed the result in front of jubilant supporters in the capital Athens. “We fought a hard and difficult battle and today I feel vindicated because the Greek people gave a clear mandate to carry on fighting inside and outside our country, but hold the bright of our people.” Syriza won’t have enough seats in parliament to govern alone and Mr. Tsipras has already confirmed that He’ll form another coalition with the right wing Independent Greek’s Partners of last government. A Syriza spokeswoman has said that the government will implement the bailout agreement reached with international creditors, but will hold tough negotiations over the country's massive debt.

Pope Francis has met the former Cuban leader Fidel Castro at his home in Havana. A Vatican spokesman said the two men had discussed world affairs and religion. Earlier, the Pope celebrated Mass in front of hundreds of thousands of people in Havana’s Revolution Square. Carline Vardar is travelling with the Pope. “On Sunday, the Pope met with Fidel Castro at his home in Havana. A single photo released by the Cuban authorities showed the 89-year old father of the revolution looking frail. Afterwards, the Pope won cheers from the crowds when he urged the young in Cuba to dream, perhaps his most subversive statement here yet. Catholics on the island remember all too well the high price that some paid here for their fate, sometimes even imprisonment. But today the image of the Pope is everywhere as he brings with him a message of hope and change”

A Republican candidate for the US presidency has said Islam is incompatible with the American constitution. Ben Carson, a retired neurosurgeon, said he would never agree to a Muslim becoming US president. “I would not advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation. I absolutely would not agree with that.” Responding to the comments, James Xogby, the president of the Arab American Institute, told the BBC Mr. Carson's views were downright stupid. “Carson simply is making a bigoted comment. And one would expect him to know better as a neurosurgeon who is running for president. But apparently he doesn't. He is planning to debase of the Republican Party.” 

The Head of the International Atomic Energy Agency has visited the controversial Parchin military site in Iran. Yukiya Amano arrived in Tehran on Sunday on what western diplomats say is a key visit if an agreement on the Iranian nuclear program is to come into effect. International inspectors have only limited access to the complex where western nations believe Iran may have tried to develop nuclear arms. Iran insists its nuclear program is for peace purposes.

The flow of migrants and refugees through the Balkans to Western Europe has continued throughout the weekend. Austria says it's expecting 20,000 arrivals, most of them through Hungary and Croatia, but some of those from Slovenia. The EU leaders remain divided who should bear the burden, as Jonny Dymond now reports. “The journey of many migrants to Europe is still hard and dangerous, but some of the chaos of last week appears to have dissipated as southeastern Europe allows migrants to move rapidly to the north and west, to Germany and Sweden, the favorite destination of many. Late on Sunday, Poland prime Minister announced that the country would accept only a symbolic number of migrants. That kind of talk riles Germany, the richest and biggest European nation which has accepted many, but clearly feels that some burden sharing is appropriate.”

Reports from Northeast Nigeria say there have been three explosions in the town of Maiduguri. And eyewitness said the attacks happened near a mosque. Unconfirmed reports say at least 8 people have been killed and many others injured.

The American computer giant apple says it’s taking steps to remove a malicious soft program that’s been found in a number of popular applications used by owners of i-phones and i-pads in China. It’s thought to be the first large scale of attack on the company’s app store. Apple said hackers had embedded a malicious code into the apps by the Sweden developers to use an effected counterfeit burgeon of the firm’s own software. BBC world news.
