BBC News with Stewart Macintosh.

The Syrian army has declared its victory in Aleppo as state media said the last convoy¹ evacuating² rebel fighters and civilians³ had left the city. The army said it would return security to Syria’s second city after liberating⁴ it from what it called terrorists. It’s the biggest victory for the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in almost 6 years of war.

Syrian activists⁵ say Turkish airstrikes against a key town held by Islamic State fighters in the north of the country have killed almost 50 civilians. The activists say 14 children and 9 women are among those killed in the attack on Al-Bab.

Donald Trump⁶ says the United States must greatly strengthen and expand its nuclear capability⁷. The president-elect said in a tweet that the arsenal⁸ must be built up as he put it until the world comes to its senses regarding nukes.

The billionaire investor⁹ Car Icahn, whom Mr. Trump appointed as a special advisor¹⁰ on regular trade issues on Wednesday, says excessive red tape is hurting American businesses. Mr. Icahn said environmental and banking¹¹ regulations had become particular obstacles to investment.

The German authorities say they have firm evidence linking the main suspect to Monday’s attack in Berlin. The fingerprints¹² of Anis Amri have been found in the cab of the lorry that ploughed through a crowded Christmas market. The search for Amri is continuing.

Investigations¹³ into corrupt¹⁵ practices admitted by Brazil’s biggest construction company Odebrech, are being opened in a number of Latin American countries. Prosecutors¹⁶ in Argentina and Panama have opened a preliminary investigation¹⁴.

Russia has withdrawn¹⁷ from hosting 2 international biathlon events next year – the World Cup and the Junior World Championships. Several countries had threatened to pull out of the events following the revelation of endemic state-sponsored doping in Russian sport.
