Roger Stone, a high-profile supporter of Donald Trump, has been suspended from Twitter after using the network to attack journalists.

Stone, who advised Trump during his presidential campaign, said he had been told he had violated Twitter’s rules.

His suspension came hours after he used abusive and homophobic language to target journalists, including a gay CNN presenter, Don Lemon.

Twitter has not commented or confirmed if Stone’s suspension is permanent.

Stone was an aide to President Richard Nixon in the 1970s, and became a political consultant. He claims in the Netflix documentary Get Me Roger Stone that he got Mr Trump to run for president.

While he acted as an adviser during the early days of the Trump campaign, he left his role in disputed circumstances in August 2015 – Mr Stone says he quit, Mr Trump says he was fired.

Since then, Mr Trump has tried to put some distance between himself and Mr Stone, who regularly appears on network television to support his former employer.

Over several hours on Saturday, Mr Stone took to Twitter to attack CNN and New York Times journalists over their reporting.

His attacks came hours after CNN reported that the first charges had been laid by a grand jury in the investigation into Russian influence on the 2016 election.

In a Facebook post, Mr Stone said he believed his suspension should have ended “some time ago yet my Twitter feed is still not functional”.

He added: “Several media outlets are reporting that I have been permanently banned but Twitter has not informed me that that is the case.”

One of the people he targeted on Saturday, CNN contributor Ana Navarro, said she did not sympathise with Mr Stone over his suspension.

Chelsea have confirmed that winger Mohamed Salah has been spared national service in Egypt.

It was feared that Salah would be forced to return home to Egypt to fulfil the military obligation that lasts between one and three years, but he has been given permission to continue his promising career at Stamford Bridge.

The 22-year-old became eligible for military service, which is postponed for students, after cancelling his enrolment in one of Egypt’s education institutes.

Salah has made a positive impact since completing an £11million transfer from Basel in January, scoring two goals in six Premier League appearances for the Blues.

The move came after he impressed by scoring in both games when the Swiss club faced Chelsea in the group stage of the Champions League last season.

He has also scored 17 goals in 29 appearances for Egypt and the news that he will not be required for military service enables him to participate in Chelsea’s pre-season training camp in Austria.

Meanwhile, the Blues have declined to comment on reports that Didier Drogba will return to Stamford Bridge for the 2014-15 season after signing a one-year deal.
