The Brief

A Boeing 767-300 operating as an Amazon cargo flight overran a runway at Miami International Airport on Sunday, struck two vehicles on the ground and burst into flames, killing five people and injuring at least five others. Investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board described the scene as "utter devastation."

The five people killed were inside a van used by airplane cleaning crews when the Boeing 767 struck them on the ground; two other people remained in critical condition and a third was stable, Miami-Dade County's sheriff said. The North Carolina company that operated the flight had previously been accused by former employees of violating safety regulations, according to legal filings. A witness said one of the pilots was shaking afterward and told him, "My career is over." The NTSB and Federal Aviation Administration are investigating the cause.

Hurricane Lowell lashed Hawaii as it passed just to the west, dropping up to 2 feet of rain in some areas and bringing winds near 90 mph and pounding surf, the National Hurricane Center said. Downed trees knocked out power to thousands on Kauai, an island of about 73,000 residents.

Forecasters said Lowell strengthened into a major Category 3 storm on its approach, and the Hurricane Center issued a hurricane warning for Kauai County, warning of flooding and mudslides in western Hawaii. Hawaii officials declared a state of emergency, citing the potential for life-threatening flooding.

The United States said it will ban imports of dairy products, motorcycles and most alcoholic beverages from Canada, retaliating hours after Canada's tariffs on roughly $20 billion of US goods took effect. The US ban is to take effect in about three weeks, a sharp escalation in the trade war between the two neighbors.

Canada's levies, some as high as 50%, hit US products ranging from steel to T-shirts. Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada was matching the US measures "dollar for dollar" while moving to reduce its reliance on the American market. President Trump has also threatened to block US sales of jets made by Canadian manufacturer Bombardier, which says its supply chain includes about 2,800 US companies across 47 states.

Rep. Chris Pappas won New Hampshire's Democratic Senate primary and former Sen. John Sununu won the Republican contest, according to projected results, setting up a general-election race for the seat being vacated by retiring Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen. Pappas defeated democratic socialist Karishma Manzur, while Sununu defeated former Sen. Scott Brown.

Both parties see the seat as pivotal to control of the Senate. New Hampshire voters also chose nominees for US House, the governorship and the state Legislature, and neighboring Rhode Island held primaries the same day.

Republicans gathered in Dallas for an unusual midterm convention aimed at boosting enthusiasm and turnout ahead of November's elections, with President Trump due to deliver a keynote address. Party conventions of this kind are typically held only in presidential years.

Trump and GOP leaders are betting the event can energize his voters at a time when the party holding power in Washington often struggles in midterms. Some Republican candidates in competitive House and Senate races are skipping the convention to campaign in their home districts and states.

New York City released thousands of previously unseen documents indicating that officials were aware of hazardous air quality around Ground Zero for months after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, even as the public was told the air was safe. Mayor Zohran Mamdani said the records show victims were "lied to" about the health risks.

The documents show toxins lingered for months after the towers fell, according to the mayor's office. The disclosure comes days before the 25th anniversary of the attacks.
