NATO BOOSTS RESPONSE FORCES AMID SYRIA CRISIS

NATO defense ministers meeting amid concern over Russian military action in Syria have decided to increase response forces to speed up potential troop deployments.

And the military alliance has renewed a pledge to defend its allies over what it calls an 'escalation' of Russian military activity in Syria.

NATO chief Jens Stoltenberg has called on Moscow to stop backing Syria's President Bashar al Assad militarily, although Russia insists it is targeting the Islamic State in the country.

Speaking in Brussels, the NATO secretary general said the alliance's members are agreed in terms of criticism of Moscow.

Russian air strikes help Syrian government army's ground offensive

Syrian government troops backed by Russian air strikes launched ground assault operations in northern provinces of the country. NATO countries, who's ministers are meeting in Luxembourg, accuse Russia of bombing western-backed rebels fighting Bashar al-Assad's regime rather than the Islamic State targets. Russia's incursion has hampered Moscow relations with leading world and regional powers, including Istanbul, who threatened to revise Russia-Turkish energy ties over Syria escalation.

HUNDREDS REFERRED FOR 'DERADICALISATION' IN UK

Nearly 800 people in the UK were referred for possible deradicalisation intervention between June and August, according to the latest figures.

The British government's 'Channel' scheme had eight people a day referred to it during that period.

It comes as UK officials attempt to stem the flow of people traveling to join the Islamic State in Syria and Iraq.

Over a third of those referred to Channel were under 18.

Dr Erin Saltman from the Institute for Strategic Dialogue says it's a worrying but unsurprising trend.
