Representatives of 17 countries and four world bodies have wrapped up a meeting with representatives of Libya's two rival factions with support for a new unity government.

The meeting in Rome on Sunday was jointly chaired by U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry and his Italian counterpart, Paolo Gentiloni, as Libya's two rival governments plan to sign the accord in Morocco on Wednesday.

"They are determined to speak and move forward for Libya, and we are determined to support them in that effort." :John Kerry.

U.S. President Barack Obama is hailing the climate change agreement reached in Paris as a potential turning point for the world.

"Even if all the initial targets set in Paris are met, we'll only be part of the way there when it comes to reducing carbon from the atmosphere, so we cannot be complacent."

Under the agreement, all nations will communicate their climate targets every five years, starting in 2020.

The U.S. government is urging American citizens to leave Burundi amid violence involving the military and police officers.

The State Department says it has ordered the [department] departure of non-emergency U.S. officials and [the families to, of] the families of personnel.

Violence began in Burundi in the wake of contested elections and an attempted coup in May.

At least six people were wounded Sunday in Central African Republic capital of Bangui when violence broke out. The violence came as voters cast ballots on a new constitution intended to stop more than three years of conflict.

A journalist with the French News Agency reports seeing two dead bodies and a dozen others in a mosque.

Muslim and Christian militia members, who have been responsible for the violence, had threatened to stop the vote.

If passed, the new constitution would limit the president (to) two five-year terms, cut the power of the military and ensure religious freedom.

Elections for a new president and parliament are scheduled to be held later this month.

France's center-right emerged ahead in initial results of regional elections.

Early results show the Republicans party of former President Nicolas Sarkozy and his allies leading in at least seven out of 13 French regions. The ruling Socialists and other leftist parties captured at least four.

The Russian Defense Ministry says one of its destroyers in the Aegean Sea fired warning shots Sunday at a Turkish fishing vessel.

The ministry said a guided missile destroyer was unable to make radio contact with the approaching Turkish fishing vessel, which failed to respond to visual signals and flares.
