The protesting students have welcomed Mr Wangchuk's decision to end his hunger strike, but said their demonstrations will continue until India’s federal education minister resigns. The agitation has gained momentum after dozens of protesters and police personnel were injured in protests on Monday. One month on from Venezuela's massive double earthquake, efforts continue to find the victims. We have a special report from our correspondent there. Oil prices hit $100 a barrel for the first time since May as the conflict in the Middle East continues to escalate.
