At least 66 killed in military plane crash in Colombia, head of armed forces says toggle caption MiPutumayo/via AP BOGOTA, Colombia — A military transport plane with 128 people on board, mostly soldiers, crashed shortly after taking off Monday in Puerto Leguizamo, Colombia, killing at least 66 people and leaving dozens injured, the head of Colombia's armed forces said. General Hugo Alejandro López Barreto said that four military personnel were still missing. "Sadly, as a consequence of this tragic accident, 66 of our military elements died," he said. "At the moment, we have no information, or indications, that it was an attack by an illegal armed group," Barreto added. In a video posted on social media, Deputy Mayor Carlos Claros said that the bodies of the victims were taken to the small town's morgue, and that the only two clinics in town treated the injured before they were flown to larger cities. Puerto Leguizamo is located in Putumayo, an Amazonian province that borders Ecuador and Peru. Sponsor Message "I want to thank the people of Puerto Leguizamo who came out to help the victims of this accident," Claros told Colombian television station RCN. Defense Minister Pedro Sánchez said on X that the plane that crashed Monday was transporting troops to another city in Putumayo. Images shared online by Colombian media outlets showed a black cloud of smoke rising from a field where the plane crashed and a truck with soldiers rushing to the site. The airplane had 128 people on board, including 115 were from the Army, 11 crew members and 2 from the National Police. Baretto said 57 people were evacuated.

chachamal Asian equity markets rebounded Tuesday morning, tracking an overnight recovery on Wall Street after President Trump granted a five-day extension to his deadline for Iran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz. The postponement of military action against Iranian energy infrastructure triggered a sharp retreat in oil prices, which had hit $113 yesterday. Markets may remain volatile as Trump cited productive talks with Iran, while Tehran denied any negotiations, signaling no clear diplomatic breakthrough. WTI crude futures climbed above $91 per barrel on Tuesday, recovering some losses from the previous session. Gold prices fell toward $4,300 per ounce on Tuesday, staying under pressure amid heightened Middle East tensions as Iran denied holding talks with the US to end the conflict. Japan ( NKY:IND ) rose 0.89% to around 52,500, while the broader Topix Index climbed 2.5% to 3,570 on Tuesday, snapping a sharp two-day selloff. The Japanese yen weakened past 158.5 per dollar on Tuesday, trimming gains from the previous session as oil prices recovered some of Monday’s losses. Japan’s annual headline rate eased to 1.3% from 1.5% in the prior month. For the first time since early 2022, core inflation (1.6%) fell below the Bank of Japan’s 2% target, marking a three-year low. Food prices in Japan rose 4.0% year-on-year in February 2026, slightly accelerating from a 3.9% increase in the prior month. The S&P Global Japan manufacturing PMI decreased to 51.4 in March 2026 from 53.0 the previous month, falling short of expectations of 52.8. The S&P Global Services PMI also dropped to 52.8 in March from 53.8, the weakest since December. China ( SHCOMP ) rose 0.65% to around 3,820 on Tuesday, pausing a three-day losing streak, and the offshore yuan edged slightly lower to around 6.894 per USD, moving in a tight range. Sentiment also improved after China's Premier Li pledged to boost imports of high-quality foreign goods and promote balanced trade, while PBoC Governor Pan Gongsheng...

jetcityimage/iStock Editorial via Getty Images One thing I love about the American banking market is the presence, existence, and continued strength of regional banks. I have previously had success in investing in several of the non-major regional banks (my history with the larger US banks has been very limited - I have never really invested in any of them, but rather kept to the mid-cap and smaller sectors because I find them easier to analyze and understand - ergo, to find undervaluation). This doesn't mean that these banks are without their risks. I will spend some time in this article discussing specific risks not only with the target of the article, Huntington ( HBAN ), but for regional banks in general. I will then apply these regional risks to Huntington , to make sure that the company's exposure to any one of these specific risks isn't too significant. All too often, I get from subscribers that I overfocus on Europe or the international market. I want to show you, dear followers, that the regional US market is a market that I love as well, and where I look for bargains. It's my stance that bargains can, in fact, be found anywhere in the market, if you keep your mind and your eyes open, and you're willing to take a shot when opportunity presents itself. It's my hope, in the reverse, by showing this, that you will become more confident also in looking beyond the US borders when it comes to attractive investments. As with regional US investments, all that's needed to determine the appeal of an international investment is understanding and valuation. That's what I mean to apply here. So, with that said and out of the way, let's see what we have here. Huntington Bancshares - Attractive even at conservative multiples and forecasts Since the general overvaluation of, I would argue, the entire European banking sector (with very few exceptions) as well as most insurance companies, I have been directing my value-focused eyes on the mid-market and mid-cap market financ...

Sundry Photography Gilead Sciences ( GILD ) on Monday said it would acquire privately held Ouro Medicines, a biotech company developing T cell engager therapies for autoimmune diseases. The agreement includes $1.675 billion in upfront cash, plus up to $500 million in potential milestone payments. The acquisition adds OM336 (gamgertamig), a clinical‑stage BCMAxCD3 T cell engager, to Gilead’s growing inflammation portfolio. OM336 is designed to enable rapid and deep B cell depletion following a limited subcutaneously administered treatment course. Gamgertamig has been granted both fast track and orphan drug designation by the U.S. FDA for the treatment of AIHA and ITP and is expected to enter registrational studies in 2027. Additionally, Gilead ( GILD ) is currently in advanced discussions with Galapagos regarding a potential research and development collaboration on the acquired Ouro Medicines assets. Galapagos would pay 50% of the upfront consideration and 50% of any contingent milestone payments payable to Ouro Medicines’ shareholders. Galapagos would absorb substantially all of Ouro Medicines’ operating assets and retain its employees. Gilead would also retain sole worldwide commercialization rights (other than in Greater China, where Keymed Biosciences has existing commercialization rights), and Gilead would pay Galapagos royalties of 20%-23% of net sales.

A sheriff’s office in Maryland has alleged a professional cornhole player, who is also a quadruple amputee, fatally shot a passenger in a car he was driving during an argument. Dayton James Webber, 27, was arrested and charged as a fugitive from justice by police in Albemarle county, Virginia, the Charles county sheriff’s office said in a statement. Charles county is seeking Webber’s extradition from Virginia and said he will be charged with first-degree murder, second-degree murder and related charges. Webber didn’t immediately return a message seeking comment sent to an email address listed for him. In a 2023 essay for the Today show, Webber said doctors had amputated his arms and legs when he was 10 months old to save his life after he contracted a serious blood infection. His medical team gave him a 3% chance of surviving, he wrote. Webber went on to become a professional player of cornhole, a game in which players throw bean bags though a hole in a slanted wooden board to score points. Webber pulled over after the shooting in La Plata, Maryland, and asked two passengers in the back of the car to help pull the victim out, the Charles county sheriff’s office said. The witnesses refused, got out of the car and flagged down police officers. Webber fled with the victim still in the car, the sheriff’s office said. Two hours later, a resident in Charlotte Hall, about a 10-mile (16km) drive away, reported a body in a yard. The victim, Bradrick Michael Wells, 27, of Waldorf, was pronounced dead by officers at the scene. The American Cornhole League posted a statement on its Facebook page saying it was aware of allegations involving Webber but said it would not comment on what it called “an active legal situation” while proceedings were ongoing.
