A house explosion in Twentynine Palms left one person dead, injured two others and destroyed the home.

The explosion happened Friday night and was captured on newly released video, which shows the house erupting into a massive fireball. Three people and a dog were inside the home at the time of the blast.

Several Marines from a nearby base were among the first to respond after hearing the explosion. They rushed to the scene and pulled the victims from the rubble.

UPDATE: The Hawk Fire in Washoe County, Nevada, has grown to over 10,500 acres. The fire remained active through the night, and is showing signs of life this morning.

Crews worked through the night, this view of heavy equipment operations from Grant Race.

The Chadian government has confirmed that its territory was attacked by Sudan after the Sudanese Air Force bombed a logistics convoy belonging to the UAE-backed Rapid Support Forces (RSF), 100 km inside Chadian territory.

Interestingly, Chad continues to deny any involvement in the war, despite repeated evidence of logistics convoys crossing from its territory into RSF-controlled areas.
