WILLISTON, Vt. (AP) — Five Vermont high school juniors were killed when the car they were riding in was hit by a wrong-way driver, who authorities said then stole a police cruiser and crashed into seven more cars before the cruiser burst into flames.
"The loss of five teens in such a senseless tragedy is unimaginable and heartbreaking," Gov. Peter Shumlin said.
BEIRUT (AP) — An international medical aid agency pleaded on Monday for access to treat the wounded in the eastern, rebel-held part of Syria's Aleppo even as government forces pressed on with their offensive to retake that part of the embattled city.
Doctors Without Borders, which supports eight hospitals in Aleppo's besieged eastern quarters, said that only 35 doctors remain in eastern Aleppo, amid an estimated population of 275,000.
