Drone strikes: US Congress to get legal documents
US officials have agreed to release to Congress documents justifying drone strikes on Americans suspected of working with terrorist groups.
The justice department acted after NBC News published a leaked internal memo outlining some of the legal arguments.
President Barack Obama's choice for CIA director, John Brennan, is likely to face questions on the programme during a Senate confirmation hearing later.
