Supreme Court strikes down bulk of Trump’s tariffs

A major earthquake struck the coastal region early today, causing widespread damage to roads, buildings, and critical infrastructure. Emergency responders are prioritizing search and rescue as aftershocks continue to rattle the area, and authorities have imposed evacuation orders for several towns near the quake’s epicenter.

Authorities reported a rising death toll and hundreds of injuries, with medical facilities overwhelmed by the surge in patients. Temporary shelters are being set up to house displaced residents, while power outages and disrupted communication networks complicate relief efforts.

Officials warned of possible further seismic activity and urged residents to stay away from damaged structures and follow official guidance. International aid agencies announced readiness to assist with medical supplies, water, and shelter materials as the response effort scales up.
