In this Pentagon-approved sketch by court artist Janet Hamlin, the Sept. 11 accused co-conspirators attend a pretrial hearing the Guantanamo Bay U.S. Naval Base in Cuba, Monday, June 16, 2014. Defense council James Herrington is at podium addressing presiding Judge James Pohl. The accused, right to left: Khalid Sheikh Mohmmad, Walid bin Attash, Ramzi bin al shibh, Aziz Ali, Mustafa al Hawsawi. Lawyers for Guantanamo prisoners charged in the Sept. 11 attack say the FBI has questioned more people who work as support staff on their legal teams than previously disclosed, a development that may prompt a new detour in an already snarled case as the war crimes tribunal reconvened Monday at this U.S. base.

In this Sunday, June 15, 2014 photo, an Iraqi child works on a temporary mosaic of Pope Francis' face made from the area's produce, including wheat, beans and lentils to commemorate an upcoming harvest feast, at the Chaldean Church of the Virgin Mary of the Harvest, in Alqosh, a village of some 6,000 inhabitants about 50 kilometers (31 miles) north of Mosul, northern Iraq. Dozens of Christian families that fled to this ancient Iraqi village have taken a much-traversed route -- many from their minority community have escaped to Alqosh before, in fear for their lives. This time, few say they want to go back to their homes, seeking safety under the Kurdish forces known as the peshmerga. (AP Photo)
