Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed
Moscow - Muslimchronicle
Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a law allowing for Russia to keep its air base in Syria for another 49 years.
Russia has been providing an air cover for Syrian President Bashar Assad’s offensive on the Daesh group since 2015.
Putin signed the law late on Wednesday to ratify a deal between Russia and Syria struck in January that would let Russia use the air field just off the Mediterranean coast for free for 49 years.
Two chambers of Russian parliament ratified the agreement earlier this month.

To 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Muslimchronicle
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home.

Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led his
