BBC World Service - BBC OS, New Brexit Deal Agreed

We are live from the EU Council in Brussels with all the latest reaction

We are live from the EU Council in Brussels with all the latest reaction.

A Brexit deal has been agreed between the UK and EU before a meeting of European leaders in Brussels. British PM Boris Johnson and European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker called it a "fair" outcome. The DUP in Northern Ireland are not supporting the deal. British MPs are due to vote on the deal on Saturday. We get the latest reaction from London and Brussels with our correspondents on the ground. 

Also, we hear the latest on the Syria-Turkey offensive. And our reporter tells us the social media reaction over a letter from President Trump to Turkey's President Erdogan. 

And, in London, we hear a conversation about an Extinction Rebellion climate change protest that turned violent.
