At least 11 dead in UPS plane crash in Kentucky

A UPS cargo plane crashed shortly after takeoff from Louisville’s Muhammad Ali International Airport, killing at least 11 people and leaving several others unaccounted for. The aircraft, bound for Hawaii and carrying more than 200,000 pounds of jet fuel, burst into flames after its left wing caught fire. Investigators have recovered the plane’s black box, which could shed light on the cause of the crash. Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear called the incident “a devastating tragedy” as local and federal agencies continue recovery efforts.

Caribbean faces devastation after Hurricane Melissa

Recovery efforts are underway across the Caribbean following Hurricane Melissa, which left widespread destruction and a rising death toll. In Jamaica, damage is estimated at more than $6 billion, while Haiti reports dozens dead and more missing amid flooding and landslides. The United Nations World Food Program is coordinating aid to more than five million affected people, as the U.S. pledges $24 million in relief funding. Officials warn recovery will be a “marathon effort” amid food and water shortages.

California voters approve Prop 50, redrawing congressional map

California voters have passed Proposition 50, paving the way for a major redrawing of the state’s congressional districts. The change, championed by Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom, could flip several Republican-held seats and strengthen Democrats’ chances of retaking the U.S. House in the 2026 midterms. The move comes as states across the country — including Texas, Missouri, and North Carolina — pursue mid-decade redistricting efforts aimed at reshaping political power ahead of next year’s elections.
