🇮🇳 - The Indian government is considering changing the country's name to "Bharat". Hindu nationalists have long seen the use of the word "India" as a relic of British rule.

🇸🇾 - Some analysis from the RN editorial team concerning these claims:
• it is not unlikely that some tribal fighters fought for Daesh at one point, given the nature of the Syrian civil war and the fact that Daeshi prisoners of war have recently escaped,
• nonetheless, characterizing the uprising as an attempt to restore ISIS rule in Syria is misguided at best - Daesh is a spent force and would be unable to launch an attack on this scale, as shown by their recent attempt to capture territory in Syria.
• claims made by Kurds that Arab movements (especially pro-Turkey ones) are Trojan horses for Daesh should be taken with a grain of salt, given the long-standing tensions between Rojava and Ankara.
