      AP FACT CHECK: Trump wrongly calls Obama 'founder' of IS

      Donald Trump says President Barack Obama is the "founder" of the Islamic State group. According to the GOP presidential nominee, Obama's decision to pull U.S. forces from Iraq in 2011 destabilized the Middle East and created a situation in which Islamic State militants could thrive. In fact, the United States is leading a coalition of some three dozen Western and Arab countries on a mission to destroy IS.

      Venezuela and Colombia reopen border crossings without incident

      San Antonio del Tรกchira (Venezuela) (AFP) - Venezuela and Colombia on Saturday opened several "provisional" border crossing points for pedestrians for the first time in nearly a year as part of a progressive reopening agreed this week, AFP journalists confirmed. During three temporary border openings last month, some 150,000 Venezuelans -- suffering from their country's severe economic crisis -- poured into Colombia to purchase food, medicine and other basics. Both governments agreed to facilitate "the fastest possible movement of people, rapidly but in a controlled fashion," Venezuelan regional military chief Jose Morantes Torres said.

      For Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan, a third time trying to enter the United States has proven not to be a charm. Khan, known as the โ€œKing of Bollywoodโ€ and one of the most famous men in Asia and across the Indian diaspora, flew into Los Angeles on Thursday. In 2009, Khan was stopped by officials at the Newark airport en route to Chicago for a parade to mark Indiaโ€™s independence day.

      U.S. declares a public health emergency in Puerto Rico over Zika

      By Julie Steenhuysen CHICAGO (Reuters) - The Obama administration on Friday declared a public health emergency in Puerto Rico due to the rapid and widespread transmission of the Zika virus, saying it poses a "significant threat" to the health of pregnant women who may be infected and their children. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services last declared a public health emergency in the wake of Superstorm Sandy, which slammed into the New Jersey shore and flooded parts of New York City in 2012. The action gives the government access to additional funding to fight Zika as congressional efforts to allocate money remain stalled.

      UK teen girl who went to IS area of Syria reported killed

      One of three London schoolgirls who traveled to an area controlled by the Islamic State group in Syria to become "jihadi brides" is believed to have been killed in an air strike, a lawyer for her family says. Tasnime Akunjee told the BBC that Kadiza Sultana's family had been told that she died in the IS stronghold of Raqqa several weeks ago. Sultana was 16 when she and classmates Shamima Begum and Amira Abase โ€” both 15 โ€” traveled to Syria in February 2015 without telling their families.

      Today Is World Elephant Day. Hereโ€™s Why That Matters

      Today is World Elephant Day, and while that means itโ€™s a great time to catch up on cute elephant videos online, there are also serious problems facing the species. Elephant numbers have dropped by 62% over the last decade, according to the World Elephant Day website, and an estimated 100 African elephants are killed each day by poachers. Asian elephants are also in trouble: there are fewer than 40,000 Asian elephants left in the world, which is less than one-tenth of the African elephant population.
