Your wrap of the world stories that broke overnight.
1. Coalition air strikes have killed 10 Isis (Islamic State) commanders - with some linked to last month's attacks in Paris and planning further attacks, a US military spokesman said. The strikes occurred in Iraq and Syria in the past month, Colonel Steve Warren said. Charaffe al-Mouadan, one of those killed, was a direct link to cell leader Abdelhamid Abaaoud, he said. Al-Mouadan, a French national, was a friend of gunman Samy Amimour, one of the Bataclan attackers, the Guardian said.
2. A British couple have been found guilty of a bomb plot timed for the 7/7 10th anniversary this year. Mohammed Rehman, 25, and Sana Ahmed Khan, 24, intended to commemorate the London attacks with new blasts in either a Westfield shopping centre in west London or the Underground, the Old Bailey heard. Police were alerted to a stockpile of chemicals at their home after the husband sent out tweets asking for advice on which targets he should hit.
3.A couple in New Mexico were marooned for 20 hours in their car during the US storms, it was revealed.

Hossain, 29, has been suspended from all cricket. The alleged victim, Mahfuza Akhter, suffered multiple injuries, including a broken leg. She told CNN that the couple, for whom she worked for a year, used to beat and punch her.
7. The Guardian says Britain's largest sperm bank has been screening for and turning away donors with dyslexia, autism and attention deficit disorder in attempts to "minimise the risk of transmitting common genetic diseases or malformations". The Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority is investigating the London Sperm Bank. Famous dyslexics include Sir Richard Branson and Steve Jobs.
8. Reuters reports that Isis theologians have issued a fatwa on when "owners" of female slaves can have sex with them in an attempt to curb what they called violations in the treatment of captured women. The ruling was among documents found by US special ops troops in Syria in May. Among the bans are a father and son having sex with the same slave and the owner of a mother and daughter having sex with both. Isis has established a department of "war spoils" to manage slavery.

Lynx often travel large distances, exposing them to greater risk. Last year 21 were killed on Spanish roads. Released lynx are tracked by radio collars monitored by an operator. Now a drone will follow the radio markers.
