The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating why a cargo plane overshought the runway at Miami International Airport yesterday leaving five people dead. The 767 operated by Amazon struck multiple vehicles after leaving the runway. Here's NPR's pink wang. Miami-Dade Sheriff Rosie Cordero Stets says the cargo plane overran the runway. It came to rest at a field adjacent to the airport. At this time we can confirm that we have at least five deceased individuals and we have multiple individuals that were transported to local hospitals with unknown injuries. Video posted on social media shows the Boeing 767 with its tail over the airport's fence and thick black smoke rising from the aircraft. It's unclear so far what caused the crash, though the National Transportation Safety Board says they're sending a team to the site and launching an investigation, pink wang and PR news. President Trump's peace on voice, Steve Whitkoff and Jared Kushner are describing their

1:03latest talks with Ukraine's president as encouraging. They met with Philotomir Zalensky in Kiev a day after discussions with Russian president Vladimir Putin and Moscow about ending the war. Kushner spoke to reporters yesterday in Ukraine's capital. A lot of politicians get afraid of the complex problems. President Trump always says the harder it is if it's worthy, you have to give it everything you have. And so he's very determined to see the end of his war to see the end of the deaths. Kushner says Trump is hoping to revive trilateral talks involving the U.S., Russia and Ukraine. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's corruption trial resumed today following a two-month recess. The trial has dragged on for almost seven years. It's unclear if it will conclude before national elections at the end of next month as NPR's Kerry Khan reports. Netanyahu was last in court in June, and has long denied any wrongdoing. He's testified in three cases he's standing trial for. One case alleges he and his family received luxury gifts for political favors.

2:08The other two deal with corruption and breach of trust accusations, charging he used his office to secure favorable media coverage from Israeli outlets. He first took the witness stand back in December of 2024, but has repeatedly asked for delays due to his political duties as well as health and security concerns. Critics worry if the trial is not wrapped up before elections, October 27th and Netanyahu wins, he could replace the current Attorney General, as members of his coalition government have repeatedly threatened. Kerry Khan and PR News tell Aviv. Bodies continue to be found in Nepal along the border with Tibet, 12 days after a glacier collapse triggered deadly flash flooding.

Authorities in Ohio say a man who lunged towards Democratic gubernatorial candidate Amy Achton yesterday at the Canfield Fair was armed with a taser and two pistols.

3:11The suspect is identified as 38-year-old Patrick Havas. The state highway patrol says Havas injured several people as he pushed his way through the crowd knocking them over. That was during Achton's campaign stop there. Havas is facing several charges including two counts of assault. Authorities are still investigating a motive. A new study from the UN says air pollution is causing millions of premature deaths and major economic losses worldwide. Here's NPR's Lauren Summer. Havas trucks and power plants that burn fossil fuels put tiny particles into the air. That can cause serious health problems like asthma, heart attacks and lung disease. A new report from the United Nations Environment Program finds that in 2025 air pollution caused about 6 million premature deaths worldwide. It also causes major economic losses. By 2050, a third of the world's population will be exposed to dangerous air. The report finds that can be avoided by investing in renewable energy, electric cars, and better agricultural practices, which it says could produce $15 in benefits for every $1 invested.
