INTERNATIONAL NEWS - Hundreds of people have fallen ill and a child has died of suspected food poisoning at a camp for displaced people near the Iraqi city of Mosul.
People were said to be vomiting and suffering dehydration after an iftar meal, to break the daily Ramadan fast.
The Hasansham U2 camp, between Mosul and Irbil, houses people displaced by an Iraqi offensive to capture Mosul from so-called Islamic State (IS).
IS fighters are currently under heavy siege in the west of the city.
The UN refugee agency, UNHCR, said in a statement that around 800 cases had been recorded, 200 of whom were taken to hospital.
Unconfirmed reports say a second person, a woman, has died.
The agency said it was "extremely concerned" by the events at the camp.
