TOP STORIES: Iran war latest, Ebola outbreak, National Jubilee of prayer
A drone strike targeted the United Arab Emirates’ Barakah nuclear power plant Sunday, setting an electrical generator ablaze on its perimeter and again straining the shaky ceasefire in the Iran war. No one immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, which caused no radiological release nor injuries, authorities in the UAE’s capital, Abu Dhabi, said. However, suspicion immediately fell on Iran, which has been increasingly threatening the UAE over recent days as the country hosted Israeli Iron Dome missile defenses and troops during the war.
The World Health Organization declared the Ebola disease outbreak caused by a rare virus in Congo and neighboring Uganda a public health emergency of international concern on Sunday, after more than 300 suspected cases and 88 deaths. The WHO said the outbreak does not meet the criteria of a pandemic emergency like COVID-19, and advised against the closure of international borders.
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth and House Speaker Mike Johnson speak at “Rededicate 250,” the Trump administration’s daylong prayer celebration happening on the National Mall as a part of events marking the 250th anniversary of the United States.
