Ten Taliban fighters stormed a VIP and cargo terminal at the airport Sunday night, in an attack that killed 26 people along with the gunmen.
WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — Delaware's transportation chief says officials are hoping to reopen the southbound lanes of an important interstate bridge by Labor Day -- with the northbound lanes reopening a few weeks later. Officials closed the Interstate 495 bridge last week because supporting columns are tilting. The bridge typically carries about 90,000 vehicles a day. The state transportation secretary says equipment, materials and expertise are on the way to Delaware. Plans include drilling new foundations to bedrock.
