I wondered how long it would be after she returned.

Slight chance it’s a bogus report?

I heard on Fox that she “disappeared” for at least 30 minutes before she arrived at the hospital and after the attack.

My neighbor’s daughter is over there for a week or so. Sheesh. They will be frantic about their blonde, blue-eyed 27(?) year old until she’s safely home. Prayers for all involved.

It is a big deal. Trust me. When something like this happens in a nuclear power, it is a very big deal.

It’s just that people misuse the breaking news section all the time. I thought this would be an appropriate use. Is that a big deal? I don’t think so.
