    1. Clinton’s health emerges as issue

    Hillary Clinton stum-bled* as she left Sunday’s September 11 memorial ceremony, which has put her health at the forefront* of a presidential campaign in which the two major party nominees* are among the oldest ever.

    Both have disclosed a limited amount of information about their medical history.

    The U.S. Democratic presidential nominee “felt overheated*” and left the Ground Zero ceremony after about 90 minutes, her campaign said. A video of her departure shows Clinton appearing to stumble as three staff members hold her up and help her into a van.

    2. 2 dead after ship hits bridge in Germany

    A river cruise ship carrying nearly 230 people struck a bridge on Sunday in southern Germany, crushing the wheelhouse* and killing two crew members, authorities said.

    The Viking Freya had just cast off* while it was still dark from the town of Erlangen on its way to the Hungarian capital, Budapest, along the Main-Danube Canal when the collision occurred, police said.

    The dead were a 49-year-old who was guiding the vessel in place of the captain and a 33-year-old sailor. Both men were from Hungary.

    3. North Korea flood death toll rises to 133

    Severe flooding in a North Korean border region has killed at least 133 people with another 395 missing and thousands of homes swept away, the U.N. said, after Pyongyang reported “great hardship” in the area.

    Some 107,000 people have been forced to flee their homes in the area along the Tumen River, the world body said on Monday, which cited Pyongyang government figures.

    The North Korea’s official media has described the downpour* that led to the floods near the northeastern border with China and Russia as the worst in decades, and said it brought severe hardship to residents.

    4. 13 killed in Tanzania earthquake

    At least 13 people were killed and 203 injured in northwest Tanzania when a 5.7-magnitude earthquake hit the country on Saturday, local authorities said on Sunday.

    “The toll has climbed from 11 people dead to 13 and from 192 injured to 203,” said Deodatus Kinawilo, district commissioner for Bukoba, the town close to the epicenter* of the quake. “For now, the situation is calm and under control,” said Kinawilo.

    5. Bangladesh factory fire kills at least 25

    Bangladesh firefighters were struggling on Sunday to search a packaging factory following a major blaze that killed 25 people amid fears more bodies could still be inside the destroyed building.

    Around 100 people were working at the factory on Saturday when the fire caused by an explosion in the boiler room tore through the four-story structure on the outskirts* of the capital Dhaka.

    6. Sick Sept. 11 responders struggle to get by

    American Sal Turturici has never spent the anniversary of September 11 at the site where the Twin Towers once stood. Even though he worked for four months after the attack operating machinery that transported body parts from Ground Zero to a makeshift morgue*, he wasn’t in lower Manhattan on the day the planes hit.

    But this year is different. For the 51-year-old father of three, it will be the first anniversary of September 11 since being diagnosed with terminal* liver cancer.

    “I died that day,” said Turturici, reflecting on the September 11 attacks. “Sooner or later, I’m going to succumb to* this.” Fifteen years have passed since the worst international terrorist attack in history claimed the lives of nearly 3,000 people, more than 400 of whom were first responders*. Since then, tens of thousands have developed illnesses stemming from exposure to toxins* at Ground Zero. (SD-Agencies)
