Your wrap of the world stories that broke overnight.
1. Police in France have thwarted an attack on a police station in Paris by shooting a man dead, as commemorations for the Charlie Hebdo assaults were occurring nearby. The attacker ran towards the station with a knife or meat cleaver, wearing a fake suicide vest, carrying paper with the Isis flag on it and yelling Allahu Akbar, say reports.
2. The UN says the Syrian Government is to allow an aid delivery through to a regime-besieged town near Damascus where people are starving. People in Madaya have had to eat grass and leaves. Aid will also go to Foah and Kefraya in the north which are surrounded by anti-regime forces.
3. In Australia an emergency warning is in place for an out-of-control bushfire south of Perth. It has burned several buildings and about 30,000 hectares.
4. The BBC reports that Google says it has fixed a problem where its Google Translates service made what it described as automated errors in translating Ukrainian to Russian words. The BBC says 'Russian Federation' was translated to 'Mordor', 'Russians' to 'occupiers' and the surname of Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov to 'sad little horse'.
