Russian Air Defense Fire Suspected in Azerbaijan Airlines Crash

  Aviation experts have raised concerns that Russia's air defense fire may have caused the recent crash of an Azerbaijan Airlines plane, as the nation mourns the loss of 38 lives.

Trump Confirms Haley and Pompeo Will Not Join Second Administration

President-elect Donald Trump has announced that former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo will not be part of his administration in its second term. Trump expressed his appreciation for their past service but confirmed that they would not hold key positions in his upcoming administration.

Haley, who served as South Carolina's governor before becoming the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations under Trump, has been a significant figure in the Republican Party. Despite once criticizing Trump during their 2016 primaries clash, she later endorsed him for his second bid for the presidency. Pompeo, who served as the CIA Director and later Secretary of State during Trump's first term, was another figure many speculated might return in a senior role.

Trump's decision marks a shift in the dynamics within the GOP, as he prepares to form his team for the next four years. The absence of Haley and Pompeo in his second-term cabinet signals a move towards new leadership and fresh faces in his administration.
