              People play basketball as wildfire smoke from Canada causes hazy conditions on July 16, 2026 in New York. Out-of-control wildfires were raging Thursday in the Canadian province of Ontario, prompting evacuations and sending dangerous smoke billowing into the United States where millions of people were exposed to the unhealthy air. US states near the Canadian border including Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and Illinois were particularly choked, as forecasters predicted the Northeast including New York would also see air quality continue to deteriorate.

              TOPSHOT - This aerial view shows a collapsed multi-storey building and surrounding debris near a coastal road following the June 24 twin earthquakes in Caraballeda, La Guaira State, Venezuela, on June 29, 2026. Hopes were fading of finding survivors more than four days after powerful twin earthquakes struck Venezuela, as residents grow increasingly frustrated with the government's response to the disaster that has killed -up to now- more than 1,700 people and left tens of thousands unaccounted for.
