In response to a rapidly spreading Ebola outbreak, Uganda has closed its border with the Democratic Republic of Congo. This news comes as the suspected cases reach over 1,000. According to the numbers compiled by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the World Health Organization (WHO), there were 121 confirmed Ebola cases in Congo and 17 confirmed deaths, with at least 1,077 additional suspected cases of the virus and 246 suspected deaths from the disease. The WHO, which is run by the United Nations, has discouraged border closures as a means of containing the virus. Closures “push the movement of people and goods to informal border crossings that are not monitored, thus increasing the chances of the spread of disease,” the agency said. The goal of health officials is to track and trace anyone who could have had contact with infected people. WHO added that this virus is quickly outpacing Congolese health authorities. Part of the issue is that the rare type of Ebola infecting people was confirmed weeks later, as tests were carried out for a more common type of the virus. Other challenges also include the threat from armed groups in eastern Congo, a…

There was a time when the mean girls of the WNBA and sports media denied their disdain for Caitlin Clark. “No one dislikes Caitlin. We are just telling the truth,” they’d say.Now, some of them openly brag about it.Former ESPN host and failed broadcaster Cari Champion admitted as much this week during a podcast with Jemele Hill.”That type of blatant favoritism annoys the hell out of me,” Champion said while discussing Clark dismissing the controversy surrounding her late scratch from a home game last week.”I don’t know if this is her fault, because I think it might be unfair for me to say that this is her fault. But at the same time, it’s like, why is she getting this special treatment? It’s, yet again, another example of the league and its fans being so precious with her.”Champion then admitted she simply doesn’t like Clark as a person.”The more we get to catch these glimpses of Caitlin Clark, I’m like, ‘I don’t like you. I don’t like the way you behave on the court,’” Champion stated.And what about the players who target Clark with cheap shots, hard fouls and obvious resentment? ZERO BS. JUST DAKICH.

After nearly 10 months, Marines assigned to the 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit are finally heading home. The 22nd MEU, embarked with the Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group, deployed from Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, in August and headed for the Caribbean, where personnel took part in Operation Southern Spear, the Pentagon’s campaign to combat what it has labeled as narcoterrorist operations to push illicit drugs into the United States.

Though the drone was designed to haul supplies across the battlefield, the Army recently tried adding a new capability to its body to see if it could do something else entirely: fire rockets. During an experiment at Fort Rucker, Alabama, defense industry partners successfully attached a three-shot weapon system on a Tactical Resupply Vehicle, or TRV 150 drone, in an attempt to fire 70 millimeter rockets, according to an Tuesday Army release. The move is aimed at bringing more capabilities to lower echelons of command. “Normally, industry waits for requirements to come out of the government, and they meet that requirement,” said Clark Dutterer, the vice president of business development for Survice Engineering, the company that manufactures the drone. “In this case, we saw that there was something that we could prove out, a new capability, and we didn’t want to wait for a requirement. We self-funded this to go ahead and do that.”The TRV 150 is a logistics drone, capable of carrying 150 lbs, and fielded to the Army and Marine Corps. Rob Baltrusch, the company’s chief engineer, called the drone the sky’s “pickup truck,” in the release, adding that the system is heavily dependent on autonomous calculations that…

United States ruler Donald Trump has threatened to attack and “blow up” Oman if it doesn’t “behave.”  Should Oman attempt to seize control of the Strait of Hormuz, which has effectively been closed since the US and Israel launched attacks against Iran in February, the US would be willing to attack its own ally, Trump said. According to a report by Reuters, Trump made the remarks after Iranian state TV reported that it obtained an unofficial draft agreement that would reopen the vital waterway, with Iran and Oman jointly managing maritime traffic. Hegseth: Hormuz Blockade Stays “As Long As It Takes” – Ships Now Fair Game For Search & Seizure “No, the Strait is going to be open to everybody,” Trump told journalists during a cabinet meeting on Wednesday. “We’ll watch over it, but nobody’s going to control it. That’s part of the negotiation that we have.” “It’s international waters. And Oman will behave just like everybody else, or we’ll have to blow them up. They understand that. They’ll be fine,” Trump said as quoted by RT. Oman is a critical US ally. It mediated talks on Iran’s nuclear program until they were suspended by the conflict. Iran and Oman lie on opposite…

On June 7, 2012, Jon Harmon was a 19‑year‑old private first class on his first deployment in Afghanistan when an explosion took both of his legs — and nearly his life. Now, exactly 14 years to the day, the former paratrooper will step out of a WWII-era C-47 and jump into the same drop zone where paratroopers of the 508th Parachute Infantry Regiment and the 82nd Airborne fought on D‑Day.“The fates always have an odd sense of irony in my life,” Harmon said in a press release. “Jumping on my 14th alive day, into the drop zone my 508 guys jumped, it’s surreal.”“Eight months ago, if someone said that was possible, I would’ve laughed them out of the building,” Harmon continued. “But once it became a possibility, it was mission mode. How do we do this? What prosthetics? What padding? And then it was off to the races.”For Harmon, the road — or sky — back to static-line parachuting has been a long time coming.
