US PRESIDENT Donald Trump signed a revised ban on refugees and on travellers from six Muslim-majority nations on Monday, scaling back the order to exempt Iraqis and permanent US residents.
With his first attempt frozen by federal courts, Mr Trump signed a second order suspending refugee admissions for 120 days and halting new visas for travellers from Syria, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Yemen and Sudan.
