Well, it was a wave of worry that swept world Financial Markets today after stocks in china plunged. The dow was down as much as 467 points, but it recovered, ending with a loss of 276 or 1. 6 . It is the worst start to a year since the great recession. The markets were also rattled by saudi arabia and iran. The two are rivals because the saudis represent the sunni branch of islam and iran is home to the shiite branch. Over the weekend, the saudis executed a shiite cleric. After a furious iranian reaction, countries in the gulf are choosing sides. Heres holly williams. Reporter in iran today, angry protesters denounced saudi arabias execution of the shiite muslim cleric nimr alnimr. His death has opened a 1,400 tensions between sunni and shiite muslims. In the sunniled kingdom of saudi arabia, alnimr dared to demand equality for shiites and was shot and then arrested in 2012. It was in shiitedominated iran that Saudi Arabias Embassy was ransacked and burned on saturday. Around 40 people were later arrested, but iran made its feelings clear by renaming this street in honor of the executed cleric. Saudi arabia and iran are already fighting two deadly proxy wars against each other in syria and yemen, taking sides along religious lines. Now there are fears that al nimrs execution will fuel even more violence in the middle east. Shiite muslims also clashed with police in bahrain. Bullets against the protesters. Blaming iran for the escalation, saudi arabia has severed diplomatic ties with tehran. Its ally, bahrain, has followed suit, while the United Arab Emirates has recalled its ambassador. With many countries in the middle east already torn apart by religious differences, these tensions could destabilize the region even more, especially, scott, if saudi arabia and iran try to use those religious divisions to further their own interests.

Thats the overnight news for this tuesday. For some of you, the news will continue. For others, check back with us a little bit later for the morning news and cbs this morning. From the Broadcast Center in new this is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. Im elaine quijano. President obama fired the opening shot in the latest battle over gun control. He met with attorney general Loretta Lynch and fbi director james comey to come up with a strategy to reign in gun violence. The president plans a series of executive actions to make it more difficult for some people to purchase weapons. And hell do it without going through congress. We have tens of thousands of people every single year who are we have suicides that are committed by firearms at a rate that far exceeds other countries. We have a frequency of Mass Shootings that far exceeds other countries in frequency. And although it is my strong belief that for us to get our complete arms around the problem, Congress Needs to act. What i asked my team to do is see what more we could do to strengthen our enforcement and prevent guns from falling into the wrong hands, to make sure that criminals and people who are mentally unstable, those who could pose a danger to themselves or others are less likely to get a gun. And i have just received back a report from attorney general lynch, director comey, as well as Deputy Director brandon, make a difference. And the good news is, these are not only recommendations that are well within my legal authority, and the executive branch, but theyre also ones that the overwhelming majority of the american people, including gun owners, support and believe. So over the next several days, well be rolling out these initiatives. Well be making sure that people have a very clear understanding of what can make a difference and what we can do. And although we have to be very clear this is not going to solve every Violent Crime in this country, its not going to prevent every mass shooting, its not going to keep every gun out of the hands of criminals, it will potentially save lives in this country. The extraordinary loss that theyve suffered as a consequence of a firearm being in the hands of the wrong people. Im also confident that the recommendations that are being made by my team here are ones that are entirely consistent with the second amendment, and peoples lawful right to bear arms. Reporter already it has a lot of people on capitol hill fired up. Jan crawford reports. Reporter the president is going to be holding a series of events, then hes going to sign those executive actions he hopes will help curb some of this gun violence. But before we know the details, opponents are sharpening their attacks. My new years resolution is to move forward on our unfinished business. Reporter president obama teased this latest round of executive actions over the weekend. We know we cant stop every act of violence. But what if we tried to stop even one . Reporter he signalled a move last month in an after 14 people were killed in San Bernardino by terrorists using legally purchased firearms. Theres some steps we could take not to eliminate every one of these Mass Shootings, but to improve the odds that they dont happen as frequently. Reporter nearly three years after the president side stepped congress with 23 executive actions on gun control, advocates are urging him to do more. The white house is now considering several steps to clarify existing laws, forcing more gun sellers to conduct background checks on potential buyers, and making it more difficult for convicted domestic abusers to acquire firearms. Democratic candidates for president were quick to praise the president s upcoming action. Most gun owners in this country understand that people who should not own guns should not be able to buy them. What if its republican that walks into the white house . Within the first day, the executive orders will be reversed. Immediately objected. On my first day behind that desk, those orders are gone. The new president comes in, boom, first hour, first minute, you can rescind that. Reporter and they attacked the president for going around congress. This president wants to act as if hes a king, a dictator. This topdown driven approach doesnt create freedom or safety, it doesnt create security. Reporter now with all these legal questions swirling around whether the president even has the authority to do this, to do an endrun around congress, one thing is almost certain, this all is probably going to end up in court. In the wilds of oregon, a group of selfstyled militiamen continue to occupy several buildings in a federal wildlife refuge. The group calls itself citizens for constitutional freedom. Members are apparently armed and are protesting the way the government runs federal lands. Theres no visible Law Enforcement presence in the area, and the fbi insists its John Blackstone reports. Reporter while the American Flag is draped over the sign here at the wildlife refuge, and thats the protesters signal that th
