The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a Level 2 travel alert for Bolivia on February 10th due to an outbreak of the chikungunya virus, while peace talks between Russia and Ukraine concluded their first day in Geneva. Additionally, authorities in France arrested nine individuals in connection to the death of a far-right student, and an autopsy was performed on an Ohio mother found dead in her home. Meanwhile, a glove found in the investigation of a missing Arizona woman yielded no DNA matches.
The CDC's travel alert specifically mentioned outbreaks in the Santa Cruz and Cochabamba Departments of Bolivia, advising travelers to protect themselves by preventing mosquito bites. Common symptoms of the chikungunya virus include fever, according to Fox News.
In France, the arrests followed the death of Quentin Deranque, a 23-year-old maths student, who died after being attacked by a gang of masked men in Lyon. The suspects are believed to be militants from the far-left, and one of those arrested is a parliamentary assistant for a deputy from the radical left France Unbowed (LFI) party, as reported by BBC World. The attack occurred after a demonstration by far-right feminists.
The first day of US-brokered peace talks between Russia and Ukraine concluded in Geneva, with negotiations set to continue the following morning. The talks, held a week before the fourth anniversary of Moscow's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, saw low expectations for a breakthrough, given the Kremlin's unwavering demands for Ukrainian territory, according to BBC World. Russian strikes on Ukraine continued during the talks. Top Ukrainian negotiator Rustem Umerov confirmed the continuation of discussions.
In Ohio, an autopsy was conducted on 37-year-old Ashley Flynn, a Christian mother and substitute teacher, after she was found dead in her home. Police are investigating the death as a complex homicide, and results from the autopsy are pending, according to Fox News.
Finally, in Arizona, a glove discovered near the home of missing 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie produced no DNA matches in the FBI's CODIS database. The glove appeared to match one seen on a suspect in doorbell-camera footage from the night Guthrie went missing. Guthrie, the mother of news anchor Savannah Guthrie, has been missing since February 1st, when investigators believe she was taken from her home against her will, as reported by BBC World.
