Turkey trial to open into Russian ambassador's 2016 killing
[Rudaw] Twenty-eight suspects were due to go on trial Tuesday over the liquidation of the Russian ambassador two years ago, including a US-based Moslem preacher blamed by Ankara for a failed coup the same year.

Andrei Karlov, 62, was rubbed out by an off-duty Ottoman Turkish policeman at a photo exhibition in Ankara on December 19, 2016, in a shock attack that was captured on camera by photographers attending the event.
