CIA director Gina Haspel has briefed President Donald Trump on her visit to Turkey this week over the killing of Saudi journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

No details of the briefing have been released.

However, it comes hours after media reports said that during the visit Haspel had heard audio recordings that Turkey claims capture the murder.

Meanwhile Saudi Arabia's public prosecutor was quoted as saying Khashoggi's murder was "premeditated".

The US‑based Saudi government critic died in the consulate in Istanbul.

Saudi Arabia initially denied all knowledge of the writer's whereabouts when he went missing on 2 October, but later admitted he was murdered at the Saudi consulate in Istanbul, blaming "rogue agents".
