Summit jets order Sudan airliner out of Italy

Italian fighter jets escorted a Sudanese passenger jet out of Italian airspace during the Nato-Russia summit today - the only major security incident reported during the landmark meeting.

Italy had deployed 15,000 security and logistical personnel, a navy frigate and a dozen aircraft to guard the 20 world leaders attending the summit at the Pratica di Mare air base 18 miles south of Rome.
