The cruelty that's been happening in Texas border just doesn't seem to stop.

The U.S. Department of Justice is threatening to sue Texas Republican Governor Greg Abbott.

If he doesn't take steps by today to remove large barrels and coils of razor wire placed in the Rio Grande River to block migrants from crossing the border, we'll speak to Texas State Senator Roland Guquiertas.

And we'll go to Arizona where the intercepts revealed U.S. Border Patrol agents are holding migrants and outdoor cages amidst a record-setting heat wave.

Smoke had been traveling over our pool for quite some time at the princess's son hotel. I know it was just getting worse and worse.

We started to hear the helicopters and then basically you could see the fire eventually on the mountain top. Panic, everyone dashing about fleeing for buses.

At least 82 wildfires are blazing across Greece during the summer's unprecedented heat wave displacing thousands of people and burning down homes.

In Italy, record breaking heat was followed Friday by a fierce hail storm in the north where ice the size of tennis balls fell on the streets of Sainio, just north of Milan, inundating the streets and icy flood waters.
