Albanian Prime Minister Edi Rama says a controversial luxury resort development linked to U.S. President Donald Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner will move forward despite growing protests. In an interview with The Associated Press on Tuesday, Rama rejected environmental concerns as misinformation and said no formal environmental impact assessment has begun because the project remains in the planning stage. But some land is already being cleared. The proposed development includes the uninhabited island of Sazan and a protected coastal lagoon, drawing opposition from environmental groups.

The upcoming World Cup will feature 48 teams and 104 matches across the United, Mexico, and Canada. It also presents a massive security challenge. The World Cup involves more countries and games than ever before, and it kicks off next week amid global tensions and mounting political violence. In the U.S., a vast network of federal agencies, local police, and private entities will manage security. They'll use advanced tools such as hunter drones and artificial intelligence-powered cameras to secure stadiums and fan zones.

In Congo, the battle against the rare Bundibugyo type of Ebola has been complicated by skepticism, attacks on health workers and misinformation.

In response, journalist Vérité Johnson launched a radio program in Bunia to combat rumors and educate residents. The World Health Organization and Africa CDC have launched a $518 million response plan. Resistance to health protocols is common in Congo, fueled by mistrust and misinformation, complicating efforts to contain the virus.
