In a statement to The Associated Press, the WHO said an investigation was underway but that at least one case of hantavirus had been confirmed. Hantavirus, found throughout the world, is spread by contact with urine or feces of infected rodents, most often rats or mice. One of the patients was in intensive care in a South African hospital, the U.N.'s health agency said, adding that it was working with authorities to evacuate two other passengers with symptoms from the ship. "Detailed investigations are ongoing, including further laboratory testing, and epidemiological investigations," WHO said. "Medical care and support are being provided to passengers and crew. Sequencing of the virus is also ongoing." READ MORE: What is hantavirus, the infection that killed Betsy Arakawa in New Mexico?

The Devil Wears Prada 2 opened to $77 million in North American theaters this weekend—topping the box office and bumping the Michael Jackson biopic Michael to second place, which crossed $400 million globally in its second weekend, according to studio estimates on Sunday.This weekend marked the official start of Hollywood's summer movie season, a crucial 18-week corridor that runs through Labor Day and often accounts for around 40 percent of the annual box office. With no major Marvel film leading the charge— the typical kickoff slot—the combined performance of The Devil Wears Prada 2 and Michael represented a substantial validation of mid-budget star-driven films and music biopics. The Devil Wears Prada 2 alone outperformed last year's summer kickoff Marvel film Thunderbolts, signaling that audiences continue to embrace stories without superhero IP attached.According to PostTrak exit polls, women drove the box office for the 20-year-old fashion franchise's return, making up about 76 percent of ticket buyers, with 74 percent saying they would "definitely recommend" the movie to friends. Meanwhile, Michael demonstrated staying power by holding onto $54 million in its sophomore frame. ...Opening WeekendThe Walt Disney Co.'s 20th Century Studios opened The Devil Wears Prada 2 in 4,150 locations across North

Nation May 3, 2026 6:38 PM EDT FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) — The first beagles removed from a Wisconsin dog breeding and research facility that was the site of recent protests seemed to know right away that they were safe. "They started within an hour or so coming up to us, wanting attention. Some crawled in people's laps. Every single one of them are super sweet," Lauree Simmons, president and founder of Big Dog Ranch Rescue, said Sunday. "I think they are loving the attention. I just know they know they're safe." Big Dog Ranch Rescue and the Center for a Humane Economy negotiated a confidential agreement to purchase the 1,500 dogs for an undisclosed price from Ridglan Farms, where police used tear gas and pepper spray to repel activists trying to take beagles from the facility last month. Protesters also broke into the facility in March and took 30 dogs. Sixty-three people were referred by the sheriff's department to the district attorney for potential charges related to that break-in. Talks to purchase the animals began months before the April disturbance, and Simmons said her group wasn't connected to the protests. Now, Big Dog Ranch Rescue is working with partners
Updated May 3, 2026, 1:25 p.m. ETPresident Donald Trump's disapproval numbers hit a record high in a new poll, the latest in a series of surveys painting a gloomy picture for the president six months out from the November midterm elections.In the latest Washington Post-ABC News-Ipsos poll, Trump's disapproval rating hit 62%, an all-time high from the survey's history throughout both terms in office.The high disapproval rate came alongside souring opinions on Trump's handling of the Iran war, the economy and cost of living, issues that the president has consistently been polling poorly on over the last few months.Trump’s overall approval rating in the new survey is 37%, dropping two points from the pollster's February figures. It's a few points higher from a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll released April 28, which put the president at a dismal 34% approval rating − a record low in that survey's history. The New York Times' daily average of Trump's approval numbers is slightly higher, tracking a 39% approval and 58% disapproval as of May 3.The most recent survey was conducted among 2,560 U.S. adults, Apr. 24-28.

KYIV, Ukraine — Ukraine on Sunday launched a wave of strikes against Russian oil targets, hitting a key loading port on the Baltic Sea and two tankers that Ukraine alleges were illegally used to transport Russian crude. A nighttime drone strike sparked a blaze at Russia’s largest oil exporting port on the Baltic Sea, the port of Primorsk, according to Russian regional Gov. Alexander Drozdenko. The port, operated by Russia’s state oil firm Transneft, is capable of handling hundreds of thousands of barrels per day. Primorsk, which was targeted multiple times in March, lies over 1,000 kilometers (620 miles) from Ukraine, between the Russian-Finnish border and Russia’s second-largest city of St. Petersburg. Local Gov. Drozdenko said that the drone strike did not cause an oil spill, but gave no immediate further comment regarding casualties or damage. But Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that Ukrainian forces destroyed several military and other targets, while also inflicting significant damage on oil port infrastructure. “One more Russian carrier of Kalibr missiles is out of action. Major General Yevhen Khmara reported on the successful destruction of targets in the Primorsk port,” Mr. Zelenskyy wrote in a Telegram post on Sunday. PHOTOS: Ukraine hits key Russian

Pirro, speaking on CNN's "State of the Union," said new ballistics evidence showed the agent's protective vest contained a buckshot pellet from the Mossberg pump action shotgun Allen allegedly carried on the night of the shooting.Allen has been charged by federal prosecutors with attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump in the shooting that left one Secret Service agent shot but uninjured. Prosecutors have also charged Allen with the discharge of a firearm during a crime of violence, but until Pirro's comments, law enforcement officials had not disclosed whose bullet hit the agent.

Cole Tomas Allen, the 31-year-old California man charged with attempting to assassinate President Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents' Association (WHCA) Dinner last Saturday, is "no longer on suicide status" at the Correctional Treatment Facility at the D.C. jail complex, according to a court filing submitted Sunday.Allen's federal public defenders withdrew an earlier motion seeking his removal from suicide status, telling the court the request is now moot. The filing comes as the high-profile federal case against Allen continues to unfold, with significant new evidence emerging in recent days about the shooting at the Washington Hilton.The ContextThe court filing offers a brief but notable update in one of the most closely watched federal prosecutions of the year. Allen faces life in prison if convicted of the attempted assassination count alone, and his defense team has signaled it may eventually press for his release before trial.The status of his mental health while in custody is also a matter of legal significance, as it could affect future proceedings, evaluations, and any potential defense strategies.What the Filing SaysThe filing was submitted by Assistant Federal Public Defenders Tezira Abe and Eugene Ohm.

Sweetin reprised her character in the 2016 to 2020 Netflix reboot, "Fuller House.""There's no syndication anymore because it's all in streaming," she noted. "Who gets paid for that?

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche said Sunday the government has more evidence than an Instagram post supporting charges that former FBI Director James Comey threatened President Trump. Last year Mr. Comey posted a photo on Instagram depicting seashells on the beach arranged to read “86 47,” which many took as support for killing Mr. Trump. “This is not just about a single Instagram post,” Mr. Blanche said on NBC’s “Meet the Press.” “This is about a body of evidence that the grand jury collected over the series of about 11 months,” he said. “We will necessarily have to prove beyond a reasonable doubt, at trial, every element of this crime, which we’re prepared to do.” A grand jury in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, where Mr. Comey took the seashell photo, indicted the former FBI director on two counts, threatening the president and transmitting a threat in interstate commerce. The charges carry a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison. A redacted version of the indictment — the unredacted version is under seal — only references the Instagram post as evidence, saying “a reasonable recipient who is familiar with the circumstances would interpret [the

That evidence was presented to the grand jury.”Blanche said he was not “permitted” to share the other evidence against Comey that was collected, but added: “At the trial — a public trial that will be open to the public — everybody in this country will know exactly what evidence the government has against Mr. Comey.”Comey was indicted last week on charges alleging he threatened the life of the president after he posted a photo on Instagram of seashells forming the numbers “86 47.”When asked Wednesday whether he actually felt that his life was threatened by Comey’s post, President Donald Trump said, “Probably.”“Well, if anybody knows anything about crime, they know 86 — you know what 86 — it’s a mob term for kill him,” Trump added.Restaurant workers told NBC News the term is “everyday lingo,” noting is has nothing to do
BAMAKO, Mali (AP) — A former Malian minister and critic of the ruling junta was abducted from his home by armed, hooded men, one of his family members told The Associated Press Sunday, as fallout spreads from a wave of armed attacks against the government in the conflict-battered West African nation.Mountaga Tall’s home in the capital, Bamako, was stormed shortly before midnight on Saturday, his relative Mahmoud Touré told AP. The men did not identify themselves, nor did they say why they were seizing Tall, but Touré said they were from the armed forces. “They did not explain why and did not present an arrest warrant,” he said. “The soldiers mistreated Mountaga Tall’s wife and took his phone.”Tall served as Mali’s education and science minister from 2016 to 2017 and is the president of the National Congress for Democratic Initiative, a political party opposed to the military government. As a lawyer, he represents politicians and other individuals who have been arrested for criticizing the junta. Mali was struck on April 26 by one of the biggest coordinated attacks on its army in Bamako and several other cities by jihadis and rebels who seized several towns and military bases. Several people

Just months into the pandemic, Matthew Haines, like landlords across the country, learned he was barred from evicting tenants who didn’t pay their rent under a federal eviction moratoriumthat lasted almost a year — costing him and his investors over $1 million. Now, the 57-year-old Texan is hoping to get some relief. Haines is among more than 1,500 property owners who filed a federal lawsuit arguing the moratorium enacted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention violated the Fifth Amendment by unlawfully denying them compensation. Plaintiffs range from those who lost thousands of dollars to one who lost over $14.5 million. After initially losing in the Court of Federal Claims in 2022, the plaintiffs won on appeal and are now in settlement discussions with the Justice Department. Landlords are hoping to recoup as much as $1.5 billion — a fraction of what the industry lost. “It’s important for us to stand up when a group like the CDC unilaterally, functionally, decides that they have a right to oversee our business,” said Haines, who owns three rental communities with 240 units in Arlington and Irving, Texas. “What I hope that we will accomplish and, to some extent, we already have,

Michigan Senate Democratic candidate Mallory McMorrow said on Sunday that deleting thousands of tweets trashing rural America reflects her authenticity rather than an effort to hide her past.A CNN report this week found that the Senate hopeful had deleted about 6,000 tweets — including posts mocking Middle America and bending the truth about where she was living, working, and voting. In a recent autobiography, McMorrow said she moved to Michigan in 2014, but on social media, she described herself as a California resident in 2016 and voted in California’s June 2016 primary, according to CNN. Reporter Manu Raju pressed McMorrow on the contradictions. “And I don’t need to tell you, but of course, you’re required to vote in the state where you’re a resident. So why were you voting in California two years after moving to Michigan?” Raju asked. “Like a lot of millennials, moving takes time,” McMorrow said, describing a “two-year process” before settling in Michigan from Southern California. “I registered to vote in Michigan in August of 2016 and voted in the general election in November that year.” McMorrow dodged when asked whether she should have voted in California while claiming to live in Michigan.“We still had our
