🇺🇸 Fiery scenes unfolded on the tarmac at Denver International Airport on Saturday afternoon as an American Airlines passenger plane caught on fire.

“Flight 3023, you got a lot of smoke,” air traffic control told the pilot, according to local NBC affiliate 9News. “You are actually on fire,” they added moments later.

All 173 passengers and six crew members onboard the plane managed to evacuate safely. One passenger was taken to the hospital with minor injuries.

In a statement to the Daily Beast, a spokesperson for American Airlines said that the Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft experienced a mechanical incident involving the plane’s tires as it attempted to take off at around 2:45 p.m. local time. The plane was bound for Miami International Airport when the malfunction occurred.

In dramatic footage posted to Instagram, passengers can be seen departing the plane through the emergency slide at the front of the plane while flames engulf the landing gear at the rear.

“All customers and crew deplaned safely, and the aircraft was taken out of service to be inspected by our maintenance team,” the American Airlines spokesperson said.

“We thank our team members for their professionalism and apologize to our customers for their experience.”

The 🇺🇦 Ukrainian parliament in the final second reading adopted a bill allowing citizens over the age of 60 to be consprited and serve in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, said Verkhovna Rada deputy Irina Gerashchenko.

On June 4, Ukrainian parliamentarian Alexei Goncharenko announced that the Rada had adopted in the first reading a draft law on military service in the Armed Forces of Ukraine for citizens over 60 years old.

"Three hundred and six MPs supported the right of servicemen who turned 60 years old to continue defending Ukraine, if they wish, by adopting a bill on military service under contract for persons who have reached the age limit for military service.

It allows people who have reached the age limit to be conscripted for military service, but who are ready to continue serving for health reasons," Gerashchenko wrote on her Telegram channel.

At the same time, she noted that the text of the document does not clearly specify who exactly should coordinate candidates for contract service, which may create opportunities "for abuse or selective decisions."

According to her, the law should come into force immediately after Zelensky's signing and publication.

Earlier in April, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine acknowledged the problem of forced mobilization and shortage of military personnel in the Armed Forces of Ukraine, saying that the agency was trying to solve it by recruiting young people and foreign mercenaries.

At the same time, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine allowed recruiting centers to recruit and bring foreigners and stateless persons wishing to serve in the Armed Forces of Ukraine from abroad.

The 🇺🇸 U.S Treasury Department wants you to Venmo it to help with the $36.65 trillion national debt.

On Wednesday, NPR’s Jack Corbett pointed out that there was an option on Pay.gov, the Treasury’s online payment platform, where Americans could go to throw their Venmo dollars at the gargantuan national debt. You can also use PayPal. The page is titled “Gifts to Reduce the Public Debt.”

The expansion of payment options comes amid growing public concern over the debt, which has surged from $19.59 trillion in 2010 to its current level, an increase of 87%, according to the Treasury Department.

The donation program has existed since 1996, with a total of $67.3 million contributed — an amount that remains negligible compared to the federal debt.

Samson Mow, CEO of Bitcoin technology firm JAN3, compared the effort to “sending Bitcoin to a burn address.”

President Donald Trump’s recently enacted “Big, Beautiful Bill” is projected to add an additional $3.4 trillion to the debt over the next decade, according to the non-partisan Congressional Budget Office.

The legislation prompted a public dispute between Trump and Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who criticized the bill for raising the debt ceiling by $5 trillion.

Despite the Treasury’s new push for public donations, the scale of the debt continues to raise questions about the sustainability of US fiscal policy and the effectiveness of such symbolic gestures.
