As the world approaches 30 million reported #coronavirus infections, @Reuters and @ReutersGraphics are launching a new site and extending our commitment to tracking the toll of the global outbreak across 240 countries and territories.

graphics.reuters.com/world-coronavi…
It's been 260 days since the first cases of #COVID19 were reported in Wuhan, China. Since then more than 930,000 people have died around the world.

Tracking the virus is as important as ever as some countries confront a second wave of infections. Others, still their first.
This new site is dedicated to identifying the latest trends and highlighting which countries are reporting increases in infections as soon as we can detect them in the latest data. Image

Firefighters have been battling some of the largest fires 🔥in California’s history in recent weeks. A fleet of specially equipped firefighting aircraft have been helping fire crews on the ground. Example from Aug. 22 👇
(THREAD)
#CalFire has its own fleet of aircraft that can reach most fires within about 20 minutes. The three main components are tactical planes, airtankers and helicopters. All have specific roles but work together as a unit to combat fires. Image
Tactical aircraft are used in aerial command and control roles in fighting wildfires, providing coordination with commanders on the ground and other aircraft in the sky. Most of Cal Fire’s tactical planes are North American Rockwell OV-10 aircraft. Image
