NEW YORK (AP) — Residents along the eastern U.S., freed from bitter, dangerous cold temperatures on Valentine's Day, couldn't even pause to take a slightly warmer breath before the next winter weather hurdle showed up. Snow, sleet and rain fell across the mid-Atlantic states while tornadoes rolled through the South.
Sunday's teeth-chattering temperatures were some of the coldest on record.
BEIRUT (AP) — Airstrikes blamed on Russia hit at least two hospitals and a school in northern Syria on Monday, killing and wounding dozens of civilians and further dimming hopes for a temporary truce, as government troops backed by Russian warplanes pressed a major offensive north of Aleppo.
The raids came days after Russia and other world powers agreed to bring about a pause in fighting that would allow for the delivery of humanitarian aid and the revival of peace talks.
