Description

A powerful 7.8 magnitude earthquake and a series of aftershocks struck Turkey and Syria early Monday, killing thousands of people and devastating a region already grappling with civil war and a refugee crisis. 

The U.S. military on Saturday shot down a Chinese spy balloon over the Atlantic Ocean, days after it entered American airspace. The incident prompted U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken to postpone a trip to China, saying it “undermined” efforts to repair the relationship between the two countries.

And in headlines: officials in Ohio started releasing hazardous chemicals from a train derailment to prevent a massive explosion, Google unveiled its own chatbot tool to compete with ChatGPT, and Crooked Media workers voted to unionize.
