A Colombian Air Force C-130 Hercules aircraft crashed just seconds after takeoff from Puerto Leguizamo in the Putumayo region, erupting into flames and leaving a devastating trail of destruction. The aircraft, carrying 121 personnel, went down within two kilometres of the runway, according to officials. At least 66 people have been confirmed dead, with several others critically injured. The impact triggered intense fires, and reports of onboard ammunition exploding further complicated rescue efforts, slowing down emergency response teams in the dense and remote terrain near the Peru-Ecuador border.

Minneapolis is in an uproar after shocking footage emerged of ICE agents dragging a pregnant woman through the snow. Even the local Police Chief is speaking out against federal tactics. In a stunning escalation of tension in South Minneapolis, Police Chief Brian O’Hara has publicly blasted federal ICE agents following a chaotic street arrest. The viral video shows an agent kneeling on a pregnant woman in the snow while onlookers shout for her release. The situation turned even more disturbing when footage captured the woman being dragged by her arm across the street toward a vehicle. While ICE claims the stop turned violent due to "rioters" attacking agents with snowballs and chemical irritants, Chief O'Hara isn't buying it. He has labeled the footage "profoundly disturbing" and an "egregious disregard for human dignity."
