At least 25 were killed and hundreds injured as the Fuego volcano erupted yesterday, spewing a river of lava that engulfed the village of El Rodeo. Itâs the second eruption of 2018 â and the deadliest since 1902 â for this [volcano](5b15113d2cab4e7e7bfa9829:ot:591df7fbac0c811781aa5dbc:1/c593bede/b5a8b14ec452a5a0b74b438f3d97c8cc//), one of the most active in Central America. Falling ash closed the airport in Guatemala City, 25 miles away, and thousands in the area have been evacuated. Many are still missing. President Jimmy Morales declared three days of national mourning, and El Salvador and Mexico say theyâre standing by with aid.

U.S. officials and South Korean media have reported that three high-ranking officials have lost their posts â and while U.S. media couldnât independently verify the reports, as is often the case with news from [North Korea](5b15113d2cab4e7e7bfa9829:ot:591df7fbac0c811781aa5dbc:1/f54b7365/4115a3af0b57d6d47f28325b97b0c8af//), itâs widely seen as a serious shake-up of leader Kim Jong Unâs inner circle. The changes represent a generational shift, with younger blood expected to be more open to negotiations with the U.S. and South Korea. That could be vital to next weekâs scheduled summit between Kim and President Donald Trump.

Itâs an executive power play. In January, President Trumpâs lawyers sent a letter to [special counsel](5b15113d2cab4e7e7bfa9829:ot:591df7fbac0c811781aa5dbc:1/a0cd0312/4507608e1f417ea3d1884624f9426d85//) Robert Mueller asserting that itâs impossible for the president to obstruct justice, and that Trump has unlimited power to pardon. Legal experts consider it an extraordinary interpretation of presidential powers, and one that would likely be decided by the courts. Meanwhile, Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani said yesterday that while Trump can pardon himself, he is unlikely to do so because it would âprobably lead to immediate impeachment.â He maintained the president has done nothing wrong.

All those friends had benefits. A new report reveals that the social media giant, already in hot water over privacy issues, had data-sharing partnerships with at least 60 device-makers like Apple, Blackberry and Samsung that gave them access to user data â and friendsâ data â without explicit consent. That contravenes CEO Mark Zuckerbergâs recent promises about [protecting data](5b15113d2cab4e7e7bfa9829:ot:591df7fbac0c811781aa5dbc:1/f3cc5c6b/71a75c252ca6a880aa1dda4560d1b4e7//) from third-party developers.

Twoâs company, threeâs a game. Once seen as little more than a playground sport, 3-on-3 hoops is making a new splash among fans. Drawing huge crowds and fueling excitement around the world, 3-on-3 basketball will even be included in the 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo. But with prize money limited to no more than $92,500 per player, itâs not quite a pro-level sport â though it provides players who have few other options a new opportunity to hit the court.
