Also: today’s stories, including how Russia may require graduates to do national service in exchange for student loans, how analysts say Tehran is trying to change the narrative about its regional posture by painting Israel as the real threat, how one teen in Nigeria’s most populous city is determined to prove that even in the most crowded corners, children can have fun. Join the Monitor's Ira Porter for today's news.
