The world’s nations are gathering in Spain for a high-level conference to tackle the growing gap between rich and poor countries and drum up the trillions of dollars needed to close it. The United States, previously a major contributor, has pulled its participation, so finding funding will be tough. The four-day Financing for Development meeting starting Monday in the southern city of Seville is taking place as many countries face escalating debt burdens, declining investments, decreasing international aid and increasing trade barriers. Co-hosts the United Nations and Spain believe the conference is an opportunity to reverse the downward spiral, close the staggering $4 trillion annual financing gap to promote development and bring millions of people out of poverty.
Authorities say two firefighters were killed and another was badly injured after they were ambushed and shot while responding to a wildfire near Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. The gunman was found dead after Sunday's attack with a weapon nearby. A shelter-in-place order was lifted Sunday night after a tactical response team used cellphone data to narrow the search on a wooded area where they found the suspect’s body with a firearm nearby as flames rapidly approached. Investigators say the gunman acted alone. Officials did not release his name.
