MAY STRUGGLES TO WIN SUPPORT FOR BREXIT VOTE

An attempt from the UK government to win over MPs opposed to Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit deal, appears to have made little impact.

A proposed amendment, understood to have Downing Street backing, which would have given UK lawmakers more of a say over the controversial Northern Ireland backstop, has not won widespread support.

Which, as UK correspondent Olly Barratt reports, means Theresa May still looks set to lose a parliamentary vote on her deal on Tuesday.

South Korea's military says it's been closely monitoring the North Korean missile base with the U.S.

But it refused to comment further about news reports.

Citing a U.S. research institute, CNN reported satellite imagery shows the base has been active before and after this year's summit between President Donald Trump and leader Kim Jong-un.

The report says the base could house long-range missiles capable of striking the U.S.

North Korea has never promised this year to fully halt its weapons development.

But analysts suggest the report could undermine Washington's faith in Kim that he'll eventually give up his nuclear weapons.
