President Donald Trump1 has signed a revised travel ban. It temporarily halts entry to the US for people from six Muslim-majority nations or seeking new visas, and it also suspends the countrys' refugee program. The new directive aims to address legal issues with the original order.

The United Nations is calling on North Korea's leadership to refrain from further provocations2 by launching ballistic missiles. The UN says the latest test launches are a violation3 of Security Council resolutions and North Korea must return to the full compliance4 with international obligations.

Thousands of chickens have been destroyed at a Tennessee chicken farm due to a bird flu outbreak, and 30 other farms within a 6-mile radius5 have been quarantined. The Tennessee Department of Agriculture declined to name the breeder, but they are a known supplier for Tyson Foods.

And a sea turtle in Thailand is recovering after surgery to remove a banked ball full of coins from the animal's stomach. The female green turtle nicknamed "Bank" had snapped up almost 1000 coins thrown into her pool over many years.
