| Divided Turkey votes in snap election, security, economy fears weigh | |  By Jonny Hogg and Daren Butler ANKARA/ISTANBUL (Reuters) - Turks voted on Sunday under the shadow of deteriorating security and economic worries in a snap parliamentary election likely to profoundly affect the trajectory of the polarised country and that of President Tayyip Erdogan. The vote is the second in five months, after the AK Party founded by Erdogan in June lost the single-party governing majority it has enjoyed since first coming to power in 2002. Since then, a ceasefire with Kurdish militants has collapsed into bloodshed, the war in neighbouring Syria has worsened and NATO-member Turkey has been hit by two Islamic State-linked suicide bomb attacks, killing more than 130 people.

Al Shabaab, which has frequently launched attacks in Mogadishu in its bid to topple the Western-backed government, said it was behind the assault on the Sahafi hotel where government officials and lawmakers stay. "Mujahideen (fighters) entered and took over Sahafi hotel where enemies lived," Sheikh Abdiasis Abu Musab, al Shabaab's military operations spokesman, told Reuters. |
| Azerbaijan's ruling party seen easily winning election | |  By Nailia Bagirova BAKU (Reuters) - Azeri voters headed to the polls on Sunday for a parliamentary election which Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev's ruling party is widely expected to win, and which mainstream opposition and international monitors are shunning. Aliyev has consolidated his power since succeeding his father and long-serving leader Heydar in 2003, presiding over a period when officials say revenues from rising oil and gas exports have delivered better living standards. The government denies wrongdoing, and Western governments, who are courting Azerbaijan as an alternative source of oil and gas to Russia, balance their criticism over human rights with strategic considerations.
