Hurricane Milton: Florida neighborhood still flooded weeks after storm hit
SUMMARY: Five weeks after Hurricane Milton, parts of Valia County remain submerged, with floodwaters still 4 to 5 feet deep on Lane Road. Residents are facing numerous issues, including disrupted septic tanks and water wells. The water is rising due to a drainage system installed in 2017, which redirects water from a commercial area into Miller Lake, exacerbating the flooding. Neighbors believe this system is malfunctioning and fear further damage, especially with another storm approaching. They’ve sought help from local authorities, but no solutions have been offered. They urge officials to seal the drainage pipe to prevent further flooding.
Five weeks to the day since Hurricane Milton tore across central Florida, one area in Volusia County is still underwater.

Glaser’s live stand-up comedy on the postgame show has drawn praise for its spontaneity and success, helping her prepare for hosting the Golden Globes. While not scheduled for more postgame appearances this season, she hopes to return next year with more football knowledge, continuing to engage with the sport and its fans.

Bethlehem is set to mark a second subdued Christmas during the war in Gaza
SUMMARY: Bethlehem is preparing for a subdued Christmas amid the ongoing war in Gaza, with traditional festive decorations and influxes of tourists notably absent. The festive atmosphere has been replaced by security measures around the Nativity Church, and Mayor Anton Salman emphasized the town’s enduring message of peace and hope while calling for an end to Palestinian suffering. With tourism, which constitutes about 70% of Bethlehem’s economy, severely impacted, unemployment has soared to nearly 50%. Access restrictions due to the conflict have also hindered movement, exacerbating economic challenges for the local population. Over 45,000 Palestinians have died in Gaza amid the violence.

South Korea’s opposition party vows to impeach acting president
SUMMARY: South Korea’s main opposition party plans to seek impeachment of acting leader Han Duck-soo after he missed a deadline to approve independent investigations into President Yoon Suk Yeol and his wife. Han, the country’s No. 2 official, assumed presidential duties following Yoon’s impeachment. The opposition Democratic Party criticized Han for vetoing key bills and urged him to appoint justices to the Constitutional Court, which will decide Yoon’s fate. Han’s failure to act on opposition bills led to impeachment threats. Legal challenges over impeachment procedures and the requirement for a two-thirds majority could complicate the process.
