A fire at an orphanage near the capital of Algeria killed 11 children and injured 19. Algeria’s Civil Protection agency says the fire broke out early Thursday at the childcare institution in Mohammedia, in the eastern suburbs of the capital Algiers. The Civil Protection agency says five children with reduced mobility were safely evacuated. The agency says several of the injured children were transported to a hospital specializing in burns. There were no adults killed or injured. Algeria President Abdelmadjid Tebboune expressed his condolences from an official visit to Berlin. The fire occurred on Algeria’s National Children’s Day during a severe heat wave that has sparked nearly 1,000 fires in the country over the past week.
President Donald Trump has endorsed MyPillow founder Mike Lindell for Minnesota governor, praising him as “one of America’s greatest and most hard working Patriots.” Lindell has a national profile from his TV advertising campaign and he's been one of Trump’s most outspoken supporters, echoing the Republican president’s false claims his 2020 election defeat to Democrat Joe Biden was fraudulent. Trump posted Wednesday online, “Mike will be SPECTACULAR!!!" Trump says Lindell “loves Minnesota” and “wants to bring it back from oblivion and embarrassment.” Trump has accused outgoing Democratic Gov. Tim Walz of allowing rampant fraud in federal spending on childcare, which Walz disputes. Lindell's Republican rivals avoided criticizing Trump's choice. Minnesota's primaries are Aug. 11.
