Anti-gay law: Ugandan politicians cheer after making homosexuality punishable by death
Ugandan politicians erupted into cheers and applause after passing a new anti-LGBT law that has sparked international concern.

The White House has warned that sanctions could be issued for those behind the passing of the bill.
