1. Pittsburgh synagogue attack

Pittsburgh was
bathed in blue last night as buildings in the city were illuminated in tribute to the
11 people killed in the shooting attack on the Tree of Life synagogue, called the
deadliest attack against Jews in US history. A day after the suspect
made his first court appearance, the first funerals for the victims will take place today, with people in Pittsburgh’s Squirrel Hill neighborhood saying a final good-bye to brothers Cecil and David Rosenthal and Dr. Jerry Rabinowitz. President Trump and first lady Melania Trump will
visit the city today, and that is generating some controversy (the
city’s mayor wants him to wait), with some saying the President’s
heated rhetoric isn’t helping the nation. The White House pushed back strongly on that.

2. Indonesia plane crash

Lion Air flight 610 was essentially a new jet, so why did it crash into the Java Sea minutes after takeoff from Jakarta, killing 189 people? Investigators seek to answer that question, as divers work to retrieve passengers‘ remains. A few bodies have been recovered, along with assorted personal items found at the watery crash site, but Indonesian authorities said it’s unlikely the
remains of all passengers will be found. The jet was a Boeing 737 MAX 8, one of the plane maker’s
newest and most advanced jets. It had only flown 800 hours. Since weather doesn’t seem to be a factor and the pilots were experienced, the focus of the investigation will be on the aircraft, a former NTSB official said.

3. Immigration

President Trump is
sending 5,200 troops and military equipment to the southern US border. The troops will be there to stop a large group of Central American migrants bound for the US, although they’re still hundreds of miles away. Trump says he’s keeping his promise to protect America’s borders, but critics say this is just a play to his conservative base a few days before the midterm elections. Many of the migrants reportedly plan to ask for asylum, but the Trump administration is coming up with a
plan to limit the number of people who could make such a request by creating a waitlist and forcing those seeking asylum as a family to choose between being detained together during immigration proceedings or having children separated from their parents.

4. Angela Merkel

The woman often called the most powerful woman in the world is about to give up her power. German Chancellor Angela Merkel
won’t seek re-election when her term expires in 2021. The four-term Chancellor, who’s led Germany since 2005, said it’s „time today for me to start a new chapter.“ The decision means Merkel’s dominance of politics in Europe is coming to an end. One policy analyst suggested Merkel, 64, stepping off the world stage means global politics could get even more „disorderly.“ Merkel’s popularity in her country has waned, in part because of the refugee crisis of the past few years.

political career and

5. Wildlife

Wildlife populations across the globe have
fallen by more than half in just over 40 years — and it’s all man’s fault. This dire portrait of the world comes via a new report from the World Wildlife Fund. It says populations of more than 4,000 mammal, bird, fish, reptile and amphibian species declined 60% between 1970 and 2014. The report blames deforestation, pollution and climate change caused by humans for the rapid wildlife declines. World Wildlife Fund wants an international treaty, similar to the Paris climate agreement, to protect wildlife and reverse human impacts on nature. The group’s leader urged action now, saying, „We are the first generation to know we are destroying our planet and the last one that can do anything about it.“
